I mostly loved what they did with with modules/package mgmt. I think SIV was a mistake but modules was miles better then the previous projects even with SIV. Some people seemed to take it very personally that the Go team didn't adopt their prior solution but idk why they expected the go team to use their package manager. I think the SAT style package manager proposed would have created a lot more usability problems for developers and would have been much harder to maintain.
- Groxx 3y agoThey took it personally because Go led the community and those project leaders on for years that it would be looking, learning, and communicating... And then dropped the module spec and implementation and mandated it all in about two days. With no warning or feedback rounds or really any listening at all, just "here it is, we're done", out of nowhere. They have every right to be personally insulted by that.
