Hi Guix!

I'm writing to ask how the package upgrade is handled, in here
especially for go (the language).

from the release notes[1], I can see 1.23.1 and 1.23.2 was released on
2024-09-05 and 2024-10-01, respectively. However the guix repo still
listing 1.23.0, which blocks my custom package tailscale from upgrade to
the latest version (which requires 1.23.1).

I understand that I can just declare a 1.23.2 version in my custom repo to
workaround this, but would like to check if it's better to have the
latest release available in guix itself? Therefore, I have couple questions:

- Are there any specific reasons we're unable to upgrade to the latest minor 
versions?
- Is there a designated maintainer for the Go package, or can anyone initiate a 
version bump?

Thanks,

Merrick
