Right? > > Thanks. Dmitry. Dmitry, I agree that union types and nullable types should be voted at the same time. Union types is a large RFC and didn't have an implementation until now. I think it is important that we have an implementation to experiment wotj. I hope you can see how having an implementation to experiment with is essential for both RFCs. Please do not move any type related RFCs to voting; I am not attempting to sabatoge nullable types. Please do not make such accusations. Levi Morrison
