That discussion took place in this thread: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/golang-dev/F3l9Iz1JX4g Some proposals were drafted (links to them are in the above thread). Proposal authors also had two conference calls to discuss and share ideas and opinions. Notes from those meetings were recorded in these two documents: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1hovWbs19GvzfYDd-2RSYw4GN3h4vkbPUj_qO5cZa1uU/edit?usp=sharing https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IOaEPwmVZrvlCg5anWI0UC9yaZmihSiMvu6-471f8KY/edit?usp=sharing I don't know if the last two links will work for everyone because of permissions on the docs. I don't own the docs, so I cannot change the permissions. I will try to get the owner to open the permissions for viewing. The general consensus (as I perceived it) was that logging use cases are too diverse to make a standard interface that satisfies a wide enough range. The group felt that persuading the community to treat logging as an application concern and that libraries should return errors or provide hooks rather than log directly. The last several slides of my talk (linked to earlier in the thread) was my attempt to persuade/educate along those lines.
