I do not think generics should be added to Go. It does minimalism and it does it tolerably well. Yet I enjoy using generics in other programming languages. If I had my druthers I'd be in Haskell-land in more than my spare time.

Hence, my modest proposal: Add generics, but make it a brand-new programming language with a totally different name.

Sadly, the name Blub is already taken. I propose we call it Glop. Or perhaps: Gong.
