Feature, Fedora 14: Go Programming

[Brandon Lozza]

Hi,

I'd like to recommend a Go compiler be included with Fedora 14. We
would have two options:

1) GCC-GO (Included in GCC 4.5?)

2) Google's Go Compiler. (One is made by Conrad Meyer, he mentioned it
wouldn't be too easy to add because goinstall basically wants root
privileges).

Benefits to Fedora

A garbage collected *compiled* language which aims to be as fast as C.
The applications it compiles doesn't require a runtime present to
work. It's comparable to Java and C# but with a lot of Python-like
features.
