I agree this is very good news. I don't have any visibility into the 
timing, but from watching other modules, I'd say it can be hard to predict 
how long it takes a module to proceed through the process. Up to a year 
maybe?

Have you looked at GOEXPERIMENT=boringcrypto and importing 
"crypto/tls/fipsonly"? Those might meet your immediate needs by using the 
CMVP BoringCrypto. I believe Microsoft also publishes some FIPS capable Go 
releases using external CMVP libraries.
