I suggest inverting this: copy/paste go-1.17 to go-1.18, and then make go-1= .17 inherit from go-1.18. This means that when it's time to sunset a version, i= t's a simple delete and not something that cascades through all recent versions. > I think it makes sense, looking at the number of impacted packages and fr= om > my experience working in go, even if the contract is the same, sometimes = it > does break on minor. I was wondering if we don't want to start publishing a go-next package like= we do with emacs-next? That would allow us to publish the latest version o= f Go without needing to immediately address building all the packages that = depend on it. Kindest regards, --=20 Katherine
