The major question that the README should answer are:

As a Go developer, can I expect to be able to build modules that will work both with both Go's stdlib and pcz std (maybe using build tag guards) ?

Are you building a completely separate ecosystem or can we expect some overlap?

Thank you for your suggestions, but I'm afraid the best we can do is to list packages compatible with both std.

The problem is, in order to build a std, we have to use a lot of <ABIInternal> stuff in assembly, and use internal/abi.FuncPCABIInternal in Go, so we can not make any promise regarding to the inter-std-compatibility for the time being, unless the Go project decided to make these features stable.
