Or maybe not. "google/uuid" tells you nothing about the owner. It might be Google, or it might be me, who squatted the name early on. "github.com/google/uuid"

Or maybe not. "google/uuid" tells you nothing about the owner. It might be Google, or it might be me, who squatted the name early on. "github.com/google/uuid" would be much difficult to squat. Also, it tells you that this comes from the Google user in GitHub, which is something much easier to verify. "code.google.com/go/UUID" would be even more of a guarantee. But I guess they decided relying on GitHub to host their Go packages was good enough.
