We know they aren't.

They have successfully been able to add major features such as generics without breaking 1.0 compatibility, and the trend is to continue than way. Well there is no major language feature in sight in fact.

Also major figures of the Go team (Russ, Ian, Rob, Ken) are gone.

Oh I somehow completely missed Russ left. I was rather hoping there will be a version 2 from all the lessons they have learned.
