>From my perspective, Google's momentum with Go is to share it more broadly 
and generously with an ever larger growing community of contributors. I 
personally don't mind the tiny logo at the bottom right of the page. 

However, everyone who feels like you should feel welcome to fork the 
project. May I suggest a few things you should pursue in your fork:

   1. Change the name to avoid confusion, may I suggest you call it Iferr
   2. Apply your favorite version of Generics (or several)
   3. Borrow heavily from your other favorite languages, e.g. Java 
   Exceptions may be cool.
   4. Invite Reddit to contribute comments (but not code)

You can do this because Google has chosen a BSD license. Whether or not 
they have a logo at the bottom right of a webpage, the license is what 
matters. 

Now, I hope you take my advice as a friendly ribbing. Of course you can 
fork the language, but you'd be crazy to do the other things. :)

Jon
