### News and community

[Ted Kremenek](https://twitter.com/tkremenek) shared that Apple [is sponsoring
PLDI this year](https://twitter.com/tkremenek/status/1243235856791429122) — the
Programming Language Design and Implementation conference. As Ted said:

> Swift has drawn inspiration from many programming languages and those of us
working on Swift are proud to be part of the broader programming language
community.

### Accepted proposals

[SE-0280](https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/proposals/0280-enum-cases-as-protocol-witnesses.md): *Enum cases as protocol witnesses* was [accepted](https://forums.swift.org/t/accepted-se-0280-enum-cases-as-protocol-witnesses/34850).

> Almost all of the feedback we received was in favor of making this change,
and the Core Team is convinced that this closes an unnecessary semantic gap
between enums and other types.
