Given the statements about backward compatibility there is no way Go 1.x can have generics. I'm fairly sure the core Go team are convinced the interface way and manual "overloading" is the way to go, and that generics are an unnecessary burden. Many people argue they are wrong without actually trying the style of programming inherent in the language. -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.win...@ekiga.net 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: rus...@winder.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
