QML is awesome, and I'm a huge fan of it - and for that matter declarative GUIs in general.

However the QML-go project, while promising, is definitely not production ready. Their github page contains a large bold header that says: "this is alpha software", and it specifically warns about stability issues.

Also QML in general, has some shortcomings right now (granted those problems are being fixed) when using it for desktop software (specifically the lack of desktop style widgets).

So while I think the project is awesome and I'm wishing it success, I wouldn't want to use it for production quality software. I think my original point still stands.

That's a valid criticism. Mostly wanted to point your attention to the project, because I think it'll be a big deal in the next year.
