New subject: New Golang Packaging Guidelines: Feedback needed and appreciated

22 Mar 2019


      Hello Fedora people,
As you may or may not know, currently applied Golang packaging guidelines 
have always been simply a « draft ». Part of the new Go SIG mission is to 
update ours best practices and tooling. As such, Nicolas Mailhot designed  a 
new set of macros based on lua script to improve our current situation. As a 
result, we needed to draft new guidelines to reflect the future implementation 
of these macros.
I have written these new guidelines and I'd like to ask for your help in 
order to review them: both from current Go SIG packagers point of view and 
from novices in the matter, in order to make sure they are clear and 
understandable enough for everyone.
I have uploaded a mirror of the Guidelines on my FedoraPeople space:
https://eclipseo.fedorapeople.org/guidelines/packaging-guidelines/Golang/
Please, if you have 10 mn to spare, read them and send me feedback. If you 
wish you can also directly send me a Merge Request on Pagure:

implement_golang_guidelines).
Best regards,
Robert-André
