Dear Debian maintainer, On Tuesday, March 13, 2012, I notified you of the beginning of a review process concerning debconf templates for golang. The debian-l10n-english contributors have now reviewed these templates, and the final proposed changes are attached to this update to the original bug report. Please review the suggested changes, and if you have any objections, let me know in the next 3 days. However, please try to avoid uploading golang with these changes right now. The second phase of this process will begin on Friday, March 16, 2012, when I will coordinate updates to translations of debconf templates. The existing translators will be notified of the changes: they will receive an updated PO file for their language. Simultaneously, a general call for new translations will be sent to the debian-i18n mailing list. Both these calls for translations will request updates to be sent as individual bug reports. That will probably trigger a lot of bug reports against your package, but these should be easier to deal with. The call for translation updates and new translations will run until about Friday, April 06, 2012. Please avoid uploading a package with fixed or changed debconf templates and/or translation updates in the meantime. Of course, other changes are safe. Please note that this is an approximative delay, which depends on my own availability to process this work and is influenced by the fact that I simultaneously work on many packages. Around Saturday, April 07, 2012, I will contact you again and will send a final patch summarizing all the updates (changes to debconf templates, updates to debconf translations and new debconf translations). Again, thanks for your attention and cooperation. --
# These templates have been reviewed by the debian-l10n-english # team # # If modifications/additions/rewording are needed, please ask # debian-l10n-english@lists.debian.org for advice. # # Even minor modifications require translation updates and such # changes should be coordinated with translators and reviewers. Template: golang-tools/dashboard Type: boolean Default: true _Description: Report installation of public packages to Go Dashboard? The goinstall program reports the successful installation of the public Go packages to godashboard.appspot.com, which increments a count associated with the package and the time of its most recent installation. This mechanism powers the package list at the Go Dashboard, allowing Go programmers to learn about popular packages that might be worth looking at. . If you choose to participate, each successful installation will be reported to the Go Dashboard. . This choice can be modified by running "dpkg-reconfigure golang-tools".

Description: Go programming language compiler
The Go programming language is an open source project to make
programmers more productive. Go is expressive, concise, clean, and
efficient. Its concurrency mechanisms make it easy to write programs
that get the most out of multicore and networked machines, while its
novel type system enables flexible and modular program construction.
Go compiles quickly to machine code yet has the convenience of
garbage collection and the power of run-time reflection. It's a
fast, statically typed, compiled language that feels like a
dynamically typed, interpreted language.
.
This package provides an assembler, a compiler, and a linker for the
Go programming language. This is Google's implementation of the Go
tool chain.
