I grew up swimming in our local river. Obviously the river Thames is a different kind of beast with currents, etc. However I nowadays would be very reluctant for swimming in rivers as soon as one is downstream of a sewer leading into the wa

To me Go seems like almost a copycat of Oberon with channels added. But I neither used Oberon nor Go so that’s more of a spec-reading impression. What would you say having used both?
