I'm also worried about how being "community driven" will change the philosophy of the language.
But I don't think that they're going to let the community run wild and completely change the character of Go. I think they're looking for wins that matter to users, but wins that are possible within the framework of what Go is.
When I read commentary about suggestions for where C should go,
I often think back and give thanks that it wasn't developed
under the advice of a worldwide crowd. C is peculiar in a lot
of ways, but it, like many other successful things, has a
certain unity of approach that stems from development in a
small group.
