Is there a way to identify a package as safe? Let's restrict the imported packages to built-in ones. Now assuming a package only imports "strings" and "net/url" can it considered as safe? Since it does not (can not) modify the environment (most notably executing code)?
Of course the package still can behave in a malicious manner by (for example) creating too many goroutines. This came to mind when I was reading about package managers and learnt some problems that they have. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
