The main problem is that one can't use "go get" to install it. There's no reason to have all the code in /src/bm.

(As pointed out elsewhere, there are style issues, but the lack of installability prevents me from even playing around with it).

EDIT: Just submitted a pull request - here's what I'm talking about: https://github.com/ChimeraCoder/bm

It's one package. It has no external repo dependencies. Do a git clone and get over yourself. As I've said elsewhere in the thread, "go get" is all fun and games until you try to make something real with it, then you realize that OOPS that guy deleted his repository and now nobody can build your code because you've tied your project to the continued existence of half a dozen external repositories.
It's one package with no external dependencies for now...
And it's one package on GitHub "for now" also... Tomorrow it might not be there, or be incompatible with its previous API.

But go get will hapilly try to use it...

Thanks. Merged that request.
