It might be the new Carbon once:
- there is ABI stability in Swift. This could be not before late 2019.
- the new APIs are only available in Swift. Is Swift NIO a hint this
is coming sooner than expected? I don't know. I don't use networking
frameworks.
Regarding the complexity of porting from C++ Carbon to Cocoa, there's
also the important question of what your minimum OS target is.
Maybe one of the reasons why you kept a Carbon version alive so long
is that the application needs to keep working on older OS versions.
Porting to OS X 10.10 or later is not the same thing as porting to
10.6 or later for instance.
