why do you think the goal is to be
perceived as a competitor to c?
i don't see that here:
http://golang.org/doc/go_faq.html#What_is_the_purpose_of_the_project
one thing that's not clear to me from
the faq (perhaps it's clarified in robs talk?)
and i haven't worked out for myself yet, is if
one could write operating system code in
go. and if so, what would the language
restrictions be.
