I can definitely say it's the tooling that throws me every time. And I do think we pull from Debian for that script currently, though we're going to update it soon. (I think I was told 1.15 was near anyways?)

Overall I find that the tooling is actually really nice, and better than anything I've worked with previously. It's just this weird "old method vs. new method" schism that makes it hard :-/ It's restricted to just tooling, but kind of Go's Python 3 moment.

And yeah, I believe Go 1.15 should be released in August. rc1 was released last week or so.
