I have read the Go 1.8 release notes and I found that now GOPATH has a 
default value.
This is a great thing: I have always I thought that GOPATH is one of the 
weak point in the Go toolchain, both when I started programming in Go and 
when I read the Go Programming language book.

However I think that the default value of $HOME/go is not the ideal one.
My settings are
    GOPATH=$HOME/.local/lib/go:$HOME/src/go/
    GOBIN=$HOME/.local/bin

Python also installs user installed modules in $HOME/.local/lib/pythonX.Y


Thanks
Manlio
