Maybe I've been a bit hasty also, the discussion seems to be ongoing.. [1]
There's an email there's from me, an we seem to have reached an agreement for separate source package for golang.
Andrius doesn't seem to have problems with this either.
Also, since we are trying to keep delta of antlr4 w/ the golang runtime as less as possible, will it be possible to package an older version of this?
I don't know what version the dependency chain needs, but the closer to antlr4 source (I think this is at 4.7.2 or something) the better.
Would you consider doing this?

I'll do the changes you proposed, but since there is not much happening new queue we can just wait with an upload until next week.
Yeah, I mean we're not sprinting for sure :)
I agree that we should first let this discussion close officialy and only then proceed.
Andrius seems to suggest a new antlr team there.
I also had prepared a patch for the existing source[2] that is mostly ready for merging so whatever the java team agrees on would not require much additional effort from my/our side IMHO and I would just go on with other packages until then.
Thanks a lot for this!
