Liam has a point. Go is not attracting attention as it used to do. Go ceased to generate news.
Other projects attracts attention by aggregating new features often. So there is always a flux of news about the project, news that attracts interest, that bring new users to the project. However, that approach ultimately leads to disaster. Each new wave of developers want to employ the latest and greatest features and after some years you end up with a nightmare in form of millions of lines of source code using a plethora of competing techniques. The minimalism in Go is its strength, but few people are mature enough to appreciate that. So what now? I think we need to add a killer feature now and then. Not so often as to create a nightmare, but only a few, very sparse. Such a feature would be something that is very desirable but utterly difficult to achieve, something that only a selected group of the best professionals in the world backed by one of the biggest tech companies in the world could make. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
