People like Go because you have a single executable to drop on a box, no worrying about what version of what libraries are installed. Though, the Go team realizes there is a need for dynamic linked libraries, so they at least have a proposal for it[0].

I've been following that proposal, and I'm a bit surprised that it isn't mentioned on the roadmap. Looks like dynamic linked libraries will come sometime in 2.x land?
One of the other talks made reference to it[0].
