+
+The Apache Arrow team is pleased to announce the v18.0.0 release of
+Apache Arrow Go. This release covers 35 resolved issues from
+11 contributors.
+
+## Release Highlights
+
+### Move to new Repository
+
+The Apache Arrow Go implementation has been shifted out of the Arrow monorepo
and to its
+own repository now located at https://github.com/apache/arrow-go. This will
enable fewer
+major version releases and facilitate more minor version/patch releases
instead as it will
+detach the version number from the Arrow C++ and other implementations in the
monorepo.
+
+Existing Go related issues have been moved to the new repository and please
file any new
+issues on the new repository instead of the Arrow monorepo.
+
+### Go Version
+
+With this release, the minimum Go version is now 1.22
+
+### Arrow
+
+#### Canonical Extension Types
+
+There is a new
[`extensions`](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/apache/arrow-go/[email protected]/arrow/extensions)
package
+which implements [canonical extension
types](https://arrow.apache.org/docs/format/CanonicalExtensions.html). This
+includes:
+
+* Opaque [GH-43455](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/43455)
+* JSON and UUID [GH-43764](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/43764)
+* Bool8 [GH-17682](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/17682)
+
+#### Features
+
+* Added the initial implementation for the Decimal32/Decimal64 data types
[Go-120](https://github.com/apache/arrow-go/issues/120)
+* Added `is_null`, `is_not_null` and `is_nan` function kernels to the
`compute` package [GH-134](https://github.com/apache/arrow-go/issues/134)
Review Comment:
The inconsistency is for whether the issue is available on arrow-go or were
resolved in the monorepo before we did the move. Issues that were resolved
before we moved the repo and don't exist in the `arrow-go` repo are using GH
while the issues which exist in the `arrow-go` repo are using `GO`.
