I have been lurking on this discussion until now. I do not "like" the nature or tone that this discussion has taken. I am not a contributor to Go but have experience with a large Open Source Project. I use Go daily. All Communities have problems attracting contributors, but the problem is not just "Quantity" it is also "Quality". PRs cannot be just accepted; they have to be "Reviewed". I think the "worst" case I have encountered involved 6 lines of PHP code that "ping ponged" 26 times before a "programmer with a bad case of agenda" accepted that his code wasn't doing what he thought. Reviewers' working in such environments are rare and their feelings on the matter must be respected. GitHubs' review procedure does not have the depth or history that is necessary. Suggestions that the "Leaders of the Project" are following some hidden "Google Agenda" is unacceptable. You should be taking the state of Githubs' review to GitHub and not proposing to "Hamstring" the Go reviewers. imho. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
