Congrats on another great release!

I also see you're going to be dropping iOS 6 support for future releases -- that'll allow adding code in Swift,

Indeed! It's starting already :-)
 
and might mean I can upgrade some of the networking infrastructure in my upcoming audio/video support patch. :D

I understand you've been working on this on your own for a while now, but I hope you weren't hoping to surprise us one day with a massive Gerrit patch ;-).  Please reach out to us with your plans and designs so we can find a good path to getting this sorely-needed functionality in the app.

Consider yourself reached. :)

I'll start a separate thread for details, but the good news is all the hard work is being wrapped up as a reusable CocoaPods module -- so the actual patch to the app will be quite small.
