Google could be planning to make a move that could bring about large-scale changes for the Android platform, and in turn, for those that develop and produce apps for the world's most popular mobile operating system. Executives from Google, along with decision makers from other tech companies like Uber and Facebook, have reportedly been in attendance at a meeting solely put in place to discuss Apple's Swift programming language. Google has potentially seen enough about the power of the open-source language to be seriously considering adopting it as a "first-class language" for Android going forward.
