> Go's refusal to embrace this is a huge pain point. Dep is a decent start, but without a community actually doing things like releases, changelogs, and all the other things that go into a solid ecosystem, it's a half measure at best.

Go has indeed embraced it and is working on `dep` the officially sanctioned dependency manager.

It's under the official golang github repository.

Yes, I know. But that doesn't help at all with the lack of releases, changelogs, etc. As I said, it's a decent start.

Agreed that it's a decent start, however I disagree with the lack of releases. If you look at the git history there is a lot of activity in it.

I think he's saying the packages you install with dep don't adhere to things like semver.
