I also write Go probably just as much as Python anymore, and the biggest set backs I have in Go is the immaturity of the ecosystem. Almost any project I work on, I have to shave 10 yaks to get things working right.

My most recent yak was fixing lib/pq so I could query against our production dbs. :)

This library? https://github.com/bmizerany/pq

If so, we're about to use it. Anything we should be forewarned about with respect to its use in production settings?

Yeah, but that's an older unmaintained version. Official is at https://github.com/lib/pq, and I already shaved my yak. :) https://github.com/lib/pq/pull/135

That's largely why I ended up back on Python, after experimenting with Go a bit. I'll try Go out again in a year or two, when others have forged the path a little better.
