The Go language is closing in what we are calling Go version 1. This will be a long-term stable release of Go, with no language or library API changes. Go 1 is described here:
https://docs.google.com/a/google.com/document/pub?id=1ny8uI-_BHrDCZv_zNBSthNKAMX_fR_0dc6epA6lztRE The expected completion date is late February. My goal with gccgo is to include a complete Go 1 implementation with the gcc 4.7 release. Therefore, I plan to continue to patch the code in gcc/go and libgo. There shouldn't be any major changes, but there will be various minor ones. Since this code is only built optionally, it should not affect the rest of the release process. Please let me know about any objections or concerns. Ian
