Google’s Go Programming languages reached Release Candidate version ahead of IO.

Google just released to the public the Release Candidate version of its Go Programming language. The company also states that the language is now production ready.

For all those who said Go Language is dead, here’s something Google has gifted you today. Go has been criticized by some for not being active in development, but I was not a big fan of that criticism. Today, the programming language has reached the near-production level code base, bringing in much more stability and interesting improvements.

Firstly, the Race Detector, which helps find the bugs caused by concurrent access to the same variable. And furthermore, the developers have killed a lot of other bugs which were existing on the code base. If you’re a developer who loves Google Go, and would like to read the entire changelog, here you go.
