Friend didn't see any mention of how threading or concurrency works in Swift in the book. Is there any word on how this is handled yet?

Is there any chance at being able to use this for cross-platform dev in the future? If it outputs LLVM, and integrates with C libraries, it should be feasible once it hits open source, right? Or is too much useful stuff tied up in Cocoa that you'd lose most of the nice bits if you were trying to build on Linux or Windows.
