"Go get" still has an issue with version dependencies, as it

I wasn't trying to say it was perfect, apologies if that
impression came
across. I was trying to say that there was a model of source
code
organization for core+packages that as been tried and appears
to be
successful to an extent better than anything seen in C, C++,
Fortran,
etc. Python, Ruby, Java (and hence Groovy and to a lesser
extent Scala)
are going a slightly different route, but are definitely ahead
as well.
Sure, I am also confident that this issue will eventually get
fixed.
Get latest only works if you have full control over all
libraries, latest
when Go gets more industry coverage, where this control is not so
easy as in open source world, this problem will be solved.
