Join us for another episode as Dave and Sven talk open-source security vulnerabilities and how all package ecosystems are at risk, why it won't be possible to give meaningful "package size" stats on package pages, yet more talk of interfacing with Swift from other languages, and a one-question quiz! Plus package recommendations, of course!
