The various proposals have been circulated amongst a small group of core Go contributors. That has been sufficient to drive the process so far, with many options being explored in detail. The work continues to evolve.
We're not university professors. We're not publishing papers or other "researchy output". We're just trying to get stuff done. If we publish all the works-in-progress we will distract the community from the more pressing concerns of today's Go programmers. We all already spend way too much time reading mail, and generics is a hot topic (obviously). The last thing we need is more (redundant) mail.

Well neither is Larry Wall, or Guido (well, is not working directly as such), or the Rust guys. But they still manage to put out proposals and describe their approaches to adding features, their progress and such. I didn't mean "researchy output" in the academic sense. Just the results of looking into it, basically. Could be just a blog post. Or some email.
