I'm surprised to not see any mention in the comments about the biggest change coming in 1.6: the package vendoring mechanism. This has been a big missing piece for awhile and I'm glad they're addressing it in an official way.

I was super excited for the cross compilation abilities on Go 1.5 and now I have something else to be super excited for in Go 1.6, can't wait!

I was confused by that. Is this going to be any different than GO15VENDOREXPERIMENT which we have now?

I guess I was hoping for a composer-like versioning system, but I suppose that's not a given?

It would be a surprise to me, but we'll see. I haven't seen much discussion since the vendor experiment, weirdly. (But I haven't been looking, either.)
