Tricky questions and the answer is no one worked. There is no Go version 2 available in 2018 but there are some movement toward it. Go 1 was released in 2012, and includes a language specification, standard libraries, and custom tools. It provides a stable foundation for creating reliable products, projects, and publications. The purpose of Go 1 is to provide long-term stability. There may well be a Go 2 one day, but not for a few years and it will be influenced by what we learn using Go 1 as it is today.

The possible goals and features of Go 2 are:

  • Fix the most significant ways Go fails to scale *Provide backward compatibility
  • Go 2 must not split the Go ecosystem
