<@U0F3291QE> Is there a roadmap for 2.0 available? I think for now the most annoying issue for me is lack of variance in binding and related generics… I can talk to compiler team, but I may need more input from you on this.

Out of curiosity, what do you mean by that? The first thing that popped into my head `IntegerProperty` isn't a `Property&lt;Int&gt;`, but that's pretty easy to work around.

I have quite a few properties that are bound to each other. Setting up the data flow between them is very annoying. Especially, if variance is involved. Let me construct a simple problematic example for you…

Hmm, right now cannot reproduce it, other than nullable everywhere

As far as I remember, it was something about have interface Foo and implementation class FooImpl, and arranging bindings between properties of these types. They didn’t type check without a (otherwise redundant) type casts.

Ah, okay. I think I've run into something like that before as well, but it was a while back.
