There are no plans to /need/ to use newer version of golang. The thought is that the language is good enough as it is to uses the features that already exists. gccgo 4.9 probably will need updating to the stable/official gcc when it is released. I understand that there is still work to get ppc64el and arm64 architecture bugs fixed. As gccgo is not as performant as golang-go, we will be evaluating our options in the future, If gcc gets faster, or golang-go gains support for one of the new architectures, we may want to discuss the issue. -- Curtis Hovey Canonical Cloud Development and Operations http://launchpad.net/~sinzui -- technical-board mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/technical-board
