Maybe I am misunderstanding, or maybe our perspectives are irreconcilably different. As I see it, if we cannot comply with the need of the Go developers to have sustained maintenance of the Plan 9 port of Go so that they need not provide this maintenance themselves, then the Plan 9 port will no longer be supported, meaning that the Go developers are under no obligation to correct any errors that may affect (exclusively) the port to Plan 9 that may be caused by development in their other territory. It also means that the Plan 9 port will be decoupled from the codereview system and in effect will be left to bitrot wherever it will be maintained when that happens. I consider that a disaster, others may think otherwise. ++L
