Feels like Go is trying to carve its own path, for better or worse, against conventional wisdom. Plan9 was pretty much the same in a lot of ways and it came up with some really interesting concepts (that sadly haven't panned out that well - I'd love to see a modern OS attempt at Acme, I found that incredibly intriguing and I actually wonder if it could be revived in VR.) If they come up with something innovative with vgo then great. It's just a shame that the community is opting for a monopoly on the system before it even physically exists. They should be encouraging dep to thrive while doing this experimentation on vgo behind the scenes, because then at least they've got community alignment on dep and not dep, glide, godep, `git clone some-repo vendor/some-repo`, `go get` and whatever else you can do to pull in external code.
