I think Binary-only packages are very important for Go's Eco, something like maven(Java) & sbt(scala)
- all it's dep packages should save in the same repo, together, like a snapshot, or similar concept like docker image - use a manifest file to list all the dep package's name and version it's ok that when the binary release, it was compiled with a older version of Go; and after that, no body maintain it and cannot compile by newer version's Go. if it just can run and still works good in a living OS, it should stay in a global repo and let people can download and use it. many system don't need update for many years after release, and impossible to recompile all it's libraries against newer compilers.
