tibbs commented on the pull-request: `Fix goname generation to match versioning 
guildelines` that you are following:
``
Yes, I never said I wouldn't approve them.

I have no idea why every Go package decided to do something different; I think 
the guideline has been in place since before Go packages started entering the 
distribution, but maybe there's a reason why Go can't follow it.  I don't know. 
 I would assume some thought was put into the naming, or maybe the Go 
guidelines already document that the scheme for those packages is different.  
(I haven't read them.)

If there is no good reason for the difference then it would be nice if Go 
packages conformed to the same naming guidelines as other packages, **but** it 
may just be that "changing things now is a massive pain" qualifies as a good 
reason.  If so, someone should simply take that to the packaging committee, 
explain what has happened, and send a PR for the Go and naming guidelines 
describing the scheme.  (The latter has sections at the end describing issues 
for specific languages/ecosystems.)
