-weekly.2011-04-13

-This weekly snapshot includes major changes to the reflect package and the
-os.Open function.  Code that uses reflect or os.Open will require updating,
-which can be done mechanically using the gofix tool.
-
-The reflect package's Type and Value types have changed.  Type is now an
-interface that implements all the possible type methods.  Instead of a type
-switch on a reflect.Type t, switch on t.Kind().  Value is now a struct value
-that implements all the possible value methods.  Instead of a type switch on a
-reflect.Value v, switch on v.Kind().  See the change for the full details:

-The os package's Open function has been replaced by three functions:
-        OpenFile(name, flag, perm) // same as old Open
-        Open(name) // same as old Open(name, O_RDONLY, 0)
-        Create(name) // same as old Open(name, O_RDWR|O_TRUNC|O_CREAT, 0666)

-is unnecessary. Gotest’s new -test.short flag in combination with the testing
-package’s new Short function allows you to write tests that can be run in
-normal or "short" mode; short mode is now used by all.bash to reduce
-installation time.

-This week's release introduces a new release tagging scheme. We intend to
-continue with our weekly releases, but have renamed the existing tags from
-"release" to "weekly". The "release" tag will now be applied to one hand-picked
-stable release each month or two.
-
-The revision formerly tagged "release.2011-03-07.1" (now "weekly.2011-03-07.1")
-has been nominated our first stable release, and has been given the tag
-"release.r56". As we tag each stable release we will post an announcement to
-the new golang-announce mailing list:
-  http://groups.google.com/group/golang-announce
-
-You can continue to keep your Go installation updated using "hg update
-release", but now you should only need to update once we tag a new stable
-release, which we will announce here. If you wish to stay at the leading edge,
-you should switch to the weekly tag with "hg update weekly".
-
-
-This weekly release includes significant changes to the language spec and the
-http, os, and syscall packages. Your code may need to be changed. It also
-introduces the new gofix tool.
-
-The closed function has been removed from the language. The syntax for channel
-receives has been changed to return an optional second value, a boolean value
-indicating whether the channel is closed. This code:
-	v := <-ch
+	v := &lt;-ch
 	if closed(ch) {
 		// channel is closed
 	}
-should now be written as:
-	v, ok := <-ch
-	if !ok {
-		// channel is closed
-	}
-
-It is now illegal to declare unused labels, just as it is illegal to declare
-unused local variables.
-
-The new gofix tool finds Go programs that use old APIs and rewrites them to use
-newer ones.  After you update to a new Go release, gofix helps make the
-necessary changes to your programs. Gofix will handle the http, os, and syscall
-package changes described below, and we will update the program to keep up with
-future changes to the libraries.
-
-The Hijack and Flush methods have been removed from the http.ResponseWriter
-interface and are accessible via the new http.Hijacker and http.Flusher
-interfaces. The RemoteAddr and UsingTLS methods have been moved from
-http.ResponseWriter to http.Request.
-
-The http.ResponseWriter interface's SetHeader method has been replaced by a
-Header() method that returns the response's http.Header. Caller code needs to
-change. This code:
-	rw.SetHeader("Content-Type", "text/plain")
-should now be written as:
-	rw.Header().Set("Content-Type", "text/plain")
-The os and syscall packages' StartProcess functions now take their final three
-arguments as an *os.ProcAttr and *syscall.ProcAttr values, respectively. This
-code:
-	os.StartProcess(bin, args, env, dir, fds)
-should now be written as:

-This release includes changes to the http package and a small language change.
-Your code will require changes if it manipulates http Headers or omits the
-condition in if statements.

-<h3 id="2011-02-01">2011-02-01</h3>
-
-<pre>
-This release includes significant changes to channel operations and minor
-changes to the log package. Your code will require modification if it uses
-channels in non-blocking communications or the log package's Exit functions.
-
-Non-blocking channel operations have been removed from the language.
-The equivalent operations have always been possible using a select statement
-with a default clause.  If a default clause is present in a select, that clause
-will execute (only) if no other is ready, which allows one to avoid blocking on
-a communication.
-
-For example, the old non-blocking send operation,
-
-	if ch <- v {
-		// sent
-	} else {
-		// not sent
-	}
-
-should be rewritten as,
-
-	select {
-	case ch <- v:
-		// sent
-	default:
-		// not sent
-	}
-
-Similarly, this receive,
-
-	v, ok := <-ch
-	if ok {
-		// received
-	} else {
-		// not received
-	}
-
-should be rewritten as,
-
-	select {
-	case v := <-ch:
-		// received
-	default:
-		// not received
-	}
-
-This change is a prelude to redefining the 'comma-ok' syntax for a receive.
-In a later release, a receive expression will return the received value and an
-optional boolean indicating whether the channel has been closed. These changes
-are being made in two stages to prevent this semantic change from silently
-breaking code that uses 'comma-ok' with receives.
-There are no plans to have a boolean expression form for sends.
-
-Sends to a closed channel will panic immediately. Previously, an unspecified
-number of sends would fail silently before causing a panic.
-
-The log package's Exit, Exitf, and Exitln functions have been renamed Fatal,
-Fatalf, and Fatalln respectively. This brings them in line with the naming of
-the testing package. 
-
-The port to the "tiny" operating system has been removed. It is unmaintained
-and untested. It was a toy to show that Go can run on raw hardware and it
-served its purpose. The source code will of course remain in the repository
-history, so it could be brought back if needed later.
-
-This release also changes some of the internal structure of the memory
-allocator in preparation for other garbage collector changes. 
-If you run into problems, please let us know.
-There is one known issue that we are aware of but have not debugged yet:
-	http://code.google.com/p/go/issues/detail?id=1464&.
-
-Other changes in this release:
-* 5l: document -F, force it on old ARMs (software floating point emulation)

-The json, gob, and template packages have changed, and code that uses them
-may need to be updated after this release. They will no longer read or write
-unexported struct fields. When marshalling a struct with json or gob the
-unexported fields will be silently ignored. Attempting to unmarshal json or
-gob data into an unexported field will generate an error. Accessing an
-unexported field from a template will cause the Execute function to return
-an error.
-
-Godoc now supports regular expression full text search, and this
-functionality is now available on golang.org.

-<h3 id="2010-12-15">2010-12-15</h3>
+<p>should now be written as:</p>
 
 <pre>
-Package crypto/cipher has been started, to replace crypto/block.
-As part of the changes, rc4.Cipher's XORKeyStream method signature has changed from
-        XORKeyStream(buf []byte)
-to
-        XORKeyStream(dst, src []byte)
-to implement the cipher.Stream interface.  If you use crypto/block, you'll need
-to switch to crypto/cipher once it is complete.
-
-Package smtp's StartTLS now takes a *tls.Config argument.
-
-Package reflect's ArrayCopy has been renamed to Copy.  There are new functions
-Append and AppendSlice.
-
-The print/println bootstrapping functions now write to standard error.
-To write to standard output, use fmt.Print[ln].
-
-A new tool, govet, has been added to the Go distribution. Govet is a static
-checker for Go programs. At the moment, and for the forseeable future,
-it only checks arguments to print calls.
-
-The cgo tool for writing Go bindings for C code has changed so that it no
-longer uses stub .so files (like cgo_stdio.so).  Cgo-based packages using the
-standard Makefiles should build without any changes.  Any alternate build
-mechanisms will need to be updated.
-
-The C and Go compilers (6g, 6c, 8g, 8c, 5g, 5c) now align structs according to
-the maximum alignment of the fields they contain; previously they aligned
-structs to word boundaries.  This may break non-cgo-based code that attempts to
-mix C and Go.
-
-NaCl support has been removed. The recent linker changes broke NaCl support
-a month ago, and there are no known users of it.
-If necessary, the NaCl code can be recovered from the repository history.
-
-* 5g/8g, 8l, ld, prof: fix output of 32-bit values (thanks Eoghan Sherry).
-* [68]l and runtime: GDB support for interfaces and goroutines.
-* 6l, 8l: support for linking ELF and Mach-O .o files.
-* all: simplify two-variable ranges with unused second variable (thanks Ryan Hitchman).
-* arm: updated soft float support.
-* codereview: keep quiet when not in use (thanks Eoghan Sherry).
-* compress/flate: implement Flush, equivalent to zlib's Z_SYNC_FLUSH.
-* crypto/tls: use rand.Reader in cert generation example (thanks Anthony Martin).
-* dashboard: fix project tag filter.
-* debug/elf, debug/macho: add ImportedLibraries, ImportedSymbols.
-* doc/go_mem: goroutine exit is not special.
-* event.go: another print glitch from gocheck.
-* gc: bug fixes,
-        syntax error for incomplete chan type (thanks Ryan Hitchman).
-* go/ast: fix ast.Walk.
-* gob: document the byte count used in the encoding of values,
-        fix bug sending zero-length top-level slices and maps,
-        Register should use the original type, not the indirected one.
-* godashboard: support submitting projects with non-ascii names (thanks Ryan Hitchman)
-* godefs: guard against structs with pad fields
-* godoc: added textual search, to enable use -fulltext flag.
-* gofmt: simplify "x, _ = range y" to "x = range y".
-* gopack: allow ELF/Mach-O objects in .a files without clearing allobj.
-* go/token,scanner: fix comments so godoc aligns properly.
-* govet: on error continue to the next file (thanks Christopher Wedgwood).
-* html: improved parsing.
-* http: ServeFile handles Range header for partial requests.

-This release includes some package changes. If you use the crypto/tls or
-go/parser packages your code may require changes.
-
-The crypto/tls package's Dial function now takes an additional *Config
-argument.  Most uses will pass nil to get the same default behavior as before.
-See the documentation for details:
-        http://golang.org/pkg/crypto/tls/#Config
-        http://golang.org/pkg/crypto/tls/#Dial
-
-The go/parser package's ParseFile function now takes a *token.FileSet as its
-first argument. This is a pointer to a data structure used to store
-position information. If you don't care about position information you
-can pass "token.NewFileSet()". See the documentation for details:
-        http://golang.org/pkg/go/parser/#ParseFile
-
-This release also splits the patent grant text out of the LICENSE file into a
-separate PATENTS file and changes it to be more like the WebM grant.
-These clarifications were made at the request of the Fedora project.
-
-Other changes:
-* [68]l: generate debug info for builtin structured types, prettyprinting in gdb.
-* 8l: add dynimport to import table in Windows PE (thanks Wei Guangjing).

-<pre>
-Several package changes in this release may require you to update your code if
-you use the bytes, template, or utf8 packages. In all cases, any outdated code
-will fail to compile rather than behave erroneously.
-
-The bytes package has changed. Its Add and AddByte functions have been removed,
-as their functionality is provided by the recently-introduced built-in function
-"append". Any code that uses them will need to be changed:
-s = bytes.Add(s, b)    ->    s = append(s, b...)
-s = bytes.AddByte(b, c)    ->    s = append(s, b)
-s = bytes.Add(nil, c)    ->    append([]byte(nil), c)
-
-The template package has changed. Your code will need to be updated if it calls
-the HTMLFormatter or StringFormatter functions, or implements its own formatter
-functions. The function signature for formatter types has changed to:
-        func(wr io.Writer, formatter string, data ...interface{})
-to allow multiple arguments to the formatter.  No templates will need updating.
-See the change for examples:
-        http://code.google.com/p/go/source/detail?r=2c2be793120e
-
-The template change permits the implementation of multi-word variable
-instantiation for formatters. Before one could say
-        {field}
-or
-        {field|formatter}
-Now one can also say
-        {field1 field2 field3}
-or
-        {field1 field2 field3|formatter}
-and the fields are passed as successive arguments to the formatter,
-by analogy to fmt.Print.
-
-The utf8 package has changed. The order of EncodeRune's arguments has been
-reversed to satisfy the convention of "destination first".
-Any code that uses EncodeRune will need to be updated.
-
-Other changes:
-* [68]l: correct dwarf location for globals and ranges for arrays.
-* big: fix (*Rat) SetFrac64(a, b) when b < 0 (thanks Eoghan Sherry).
-* compress/flate: fix typo in comment (thanks Mathieu Lonjaret).
-* crypto/elliptic: use a Jacobian transform for better performance.
-* doc/code.html: fix reference to "gomake build" (thanks Anschel Schaffer-Cohen).
-* doc/roadmap: update gdb status.
-* doc/spec: fixed some omissions and type errors.
-* doc: some typo fixes (thanks Peter Mundy).
-* exp/eval: build fix for parser.ParseFile API change (thanks Anschel Schaffer-Cohen).
-* fmt: Scan accepts Inf and NaN,
-        allow "% X" as well as "% x".
-* go/printer: preserve newlines in func parameter lists (thanks Jamie Gennis).
-* http: consume request body before next request.
-* log: ensure writes are atomic (thanks Roger Peppe).
-* path: Windows support for Split (thanks Benny Siegert).
-* runtime: fix SysFree to really free memory on Windows (thanks Alex Brainman),
-        parallel definitions in Go for all C structs.
-* sort: avoid overflow in pivot calculation,
-        reduced stack depth to lg(n) in quickSort (thanks Stefan Nilsson).
-* strconv: Atof on Infs and NaNs.

-*** This release changes the encoding used by package gob. 
-    If you store gobs on disk, see below. ***
-
-The ARM port (5g) now passes all tests. The optimizer is not yet enabled, and
-floating point arithmetic is performed entirely in software. Work is underway
-to address both of these deficiencies.
-
-The syntax for arrays, slices, and maps of composite literals has been
-simplified. Within a composite literal of array, slice, or map type, elements
-that are themselves composite literals may elide the type if it is identical to
-the outer literal's element type. For example, these expressions:
-	[][]int{[]int{1, 2, 3}, []int{4, 5}}
-	map[string]Point{"x": Point{1.5, -3.5}, "y": Point{0, 0}}
-can be simplified to:
-	[][]int{{1, 2, 3}, {4, 5}}
-	map[string]Point{"x": {1.5, -3.5}, "y": {0, 0}}
-Gofmt can make these simplifications mechanically when invoked with the 
-new -s flag.
-
-The built-in copy function can now copy bytes from a string value to a []byte.
-Code like this (for []byte b and string s): 
-	for i := 0; i < len(s); i++ {
-		b[i] = s[i]
+	v, ok := &lt;-ch
+	if !ok {
+		// channel is closed
 	}
-can be rewritten as:
-	copy(b, s)
-
-The gob package can now encode and decode interface values containing types
-registered ahead of time with the new Register function. These changes required
-a backwards-incompatible change to the wire format.  Data written with the old
-version of the package will not be readable with the new one, and vice versa.
-(Steps were made in this change to make sure this doesn't happen again.) 
-We don't know of anyone using gobs to create permanent data, but if you do this
-and need help converting, please let us know, and do not update to this release
-yet.  We will help you convert your data.
-
-Other changes:
-* 5g, 6g, 8g: generate code for string index instead of calling function.
-* 5l, 6l, 8l: introduce sub-symbols.
-* 6l/8l: global and local variables and type info.
-* Make.inc: delete unnecessary -fno-inline flag to quietgcc.
-* arm: precise float64 software floating point, bug fixes.
-* big: arm assembly, faster software mulWW, divWW.
-* build: only print "You need to add foo to PATH" when needed.
-* container/list: fix Remove bug and use pointer to self as identifier.
-* doc: show page title in browser title bar,
-        update roadmap.
-* encoding/binary: give LittleEndian, BigEndian specific types.
-* go/parser: consume auto-inserted semi when calling ParseExpr().
-* gobuilder: pass GOHOSTOS and GOHOSTARCH to build,
-        write build and benchmarking logs to disk.
-* goinstall: display helpful message when encountering a cgo package,
-        fix test for multiple package names (thanks Fazlul Shahriar).
-* gotest: generate correct gofmt-formatted _testmain.go.
-* image/png: speed up paletted encoding ~25% (thanks Brad Fitzpatrick).
-* misc: update python scripts to specify python2 as python3 is now "python".
-* net: fix comment on Dial to mention unix/unixgram.
-* rpc: expose Server type to allow multiple RPC Server instances.
-* runtime: print unknown types in panic.
-* spec: append built-in (not yet implemented).
-* src: gofmt -s -w src misc.
-        update code to use copy-from-string.
-* test/bench: update numbers.
-* websocket: fix short Read.

-This release includes changes to the log package, the removal of exp/iterable,
-two new tools (gotry and goplay), one small language change, and many other
-changes and fixes.  If you use the log or iterable packages, you need to make
-changes to your code.
-
-The log package has changed.  Loggers now have only one output, and output to
-standard error by default.  The names have also changed, although the old names
-are still supported.  They will be deleted in the next release, though, so it
-would be good to update now if you can.  For most purposes all you need to do
-is make these substitutions:
-        log.Stderr -> log.Println or log.Print
-        log.Stderrf -> log.Printf
-        log.Crash -> log.Panicln or log.Panic
-        log.Crashf -> log.Panicf
-        log.Exit -> log.Exitln or log.Exit
-        log.Exitf -> log.Exitf (no change)
-Calls to log.New() must drop the second argument.
-Also, custom loggers with exit or panic properties will need to be reworked.
-For full details, see the change description:
-        http://code.google.com/p/go/source/detail?r=d8a3c7563d
-
-The language change is that uses of pointers to interface values no longer
-automatically dereference the pointer.  A pointer to an interface value is more
-often a beginner's bug than correct code.
-
-The package exp/iterable has been removed. It was an interesting experiment,
-but it encourages writing inefficient code and has outlived its utility.
-
-The new tools:
-* gotry: an exercise in reflection and an unusual tool. Run 'gotry' for details.
-* goplay: a stand-alone version of the Go Playground. See misc/goplay.
-
-Other changes:
-* 6l: Mach-O fixes, and fix to work with OS X nm/otool (thanks Jim McGrath).
-* [568]a: correct line numbers for statements.
-* arm: code generation and runtime fixes,
-	adjust recover for new reflect.call,
-	enable 6 more tests after net fix.
-* big: fix panic and round correctly in Rat.FloatString (thanks Anthony Martin).
-* build: Make.cmd: remove $(OFILES) (thanks Eric Clark),
-        Make.pkg: remove .so before installing new one,
-        add GOHOSTOS and GOHOSTARCH environment variables.
-* crypto/tls: better error messages for certificate issues,
-        make SetReadTimeout work.
-* doc: add Sydney University video,
-	add The Expressiveness of Go talk.
-* exp/draw/x11: support X11 vendors other than "The X.Org Foundation".
-* expvar: add (*Int).Set (thanks Sam Thorogood).
-* fmt: add Errorf helper function,
-        allow %d on []byte.
-* gc: O(1) string comparison when lengths differ,
-        various bug fixes.
-* http: return the correct error if a header line is too long.
-* image: add image.Tiled type, the Go equivalent of Plan 9's repl bit.
-* ld: be less picky about bad line number info.
-* misc/cgo/life: fix for new slice rules (thanks Graham Miller).
-* net: allow _ in DNS names.
-* netchan: export before import when testing, and
-        zero out request to ensure correct gob decoding. (thanks Roger Peppe).
-* os: make tests work on windows (thanks Alex Brainman).
-* runtime: bug fix: serialize mcache allocation,
-        correct iteration of large map values,
-        faster strequal, memequal (thanks Graham Miller),
-        fix argument dump in traceback,
-        fix tiny build.
-* smtp: new package (thanks Evan Shaw).
-* syscall: add sockaddr_ll support for linux/386, linux/amd64 (thanks Mikio Hara),
-        add ucred structure for SCM_CREDENTIALS over UNIX sockets. (thanks Albert Strasheim).
-* syscall: implement WaitStatus and Wait4() for windows (thanks Wei Guangjing).
-* time: add After.
-* websocket: enable tests on windows (thanks Alex Brainman).

-<pre>
-This release includes some minor language changes and some significant package
-changes. You may need to change your code if you use ...T parameters or the
-http package.
-
-The semantics and syntax of forwarding ...T parameters have changed.
-        func message(f string, s ...interface{}) { fmt.Printf(f, s) }
-Here, s has type []interface{} and contains the parameters passed to message.
-Before this language change, the compiler recognized when a function call
-passed a ... parameter to another ... parameter of the same type, and just
-passed it as though it was a list of arguments.  But this meant that you
-couldn't control whether to pass the slice as a single argument and you
-couldn't pass a regular slice as a ... parameter, which can be handy.  This
-change gives you that control at the cost of a few characters in the call.
-If you want the promotion to ...,  append ... to the argument:
-        func message(f string, s ...interface{}) { fmt.Printf(f, s...) }
-Without the ..., s would be passed to Printf as a single argument of type
-[]interface{}.  The bad news is you might need to fix up some of your code, 
-but the compiler will detect the situation and warn you.
-
-Also, the http.Handler and http.HandlerFunc types have changed. Where http
-handler functions previously accepted an *http.Conn, they now take an interface
-type http.ResponseWriter. ResponseWriter implements the same methods as *Conn,
-so in most cases the only change required will be changing the type signature
-of your handler function's first parameter. See:
-  http://golang.org/pkg/http/#Handler
-
-The utf8 package has a new type, String, that provides efficient indexing 
-into utf8 strings by rune (previously an expensive conversion to []int 
-was required). See:
-  http://golang.org/pkg/utf8/#String
-
-The compiler will now automatically insert a semicolon at the end of a file if
-one is not found. This effect of this is that Go source files are no longer
-required to have a trailing newline.
-
-Other changes:
-* 6prof: more accurate usage message.
-* archive/zip: new package for reading Zip files.
-* arm: fix code generation, 10 more package tests pass.
-* asn1: make interface consistent with json.
-* bufio.UnreadRune: fix bug at EOF.
-* build: clear custom variables like GREP_OPTIONS,
-        silence warnings generated by ubuntu gcc,
-        use full path when compiling libraries.
-* bytes, strings: change lastIndexFunc to use DecodeLastRune (thanks Roger Peppe).
-* doc: add to and consolidate non-english doc references,
-        consolidate FAQs into a single file, go_faq.html,
-        updates for new http interface.
-* fmt/Printf: document and tweak error messages produced for bad formats.
-* gc: allow select case expr = <-c,
-        eliminate duplicates in method table,
-        fix reflect table method receiver,
-        improve error message for x \= 0.
-* go/scanner: treat EOF like a newline for purposes of semicolon insertion.
-* gofmt: stability improvements.

-* misc/dashboard/builder: remove build files after benchmarking.
-* nacl: update instructions for new SDK.
-* net: enable v4-over-v6 on ip sockets,
-        fix crash in DialIP.
-* os: check for valid arguments in windows Readdir (thanks Peter Mundy).
-* runtime: add mmap of null page just in case,
-        correct stats in SysFree,
-        fix unwindstack crash.

-This release includes changes to the build system that will likely require you
-to make changes to your environment variables and Makefiles.
-
-All environment variables are now optional:
- - $GOOS and $GOARCH are now optional; their values should now be inferred 
-   automatically by the build system,
- - $GOROOT is now optional, but if you choose not to set it you must run
-   'gomake' instead of 'make' or 'gmake' when developing Go programs
-   using the conventional Makefiles,
- - $GOBIN remains optional and now defaults to $GOROOT/bin;
-   if you wish to use this new default, make sure it is in your $PATH
-   and that you have removed the existing binaries from $HOME/bin.
-
-As a result of these changes, the Go Makefiles have changed. If your Makefiles
-inherit from the Go Makefiles, you must change this line:
-    include ../../Make.$(GOARCH)
-to this:
-    include ../../Make.inc
-
-This release also removes the deprecated functions in regexp and the 
-once package. Any code that still uses them will break.
-See the notes from the last release for details:
-    http://golang.org/doc/devel/release.html#2010-08-11
-
-Other changes:
-* 6g: better registerization for slices, strings, interface values
-* 6l: line number information in DWARF format

-This release introduces some package changes. You may need to change your
-code if you use the once, regexp, image, or exp/draw packages.
-
-The type Once has been added to the sync package. The new sync.Once will
-supersede the functionality provided by the once package. We intend to remove
-the once package after this release. See:
-    http://golang.org/pkg/sync/#Once
-All instances of once in the standard library have been replaced with
-sync.Once. Reviewing these changes may help you modify your existing code. 
-The relevant changeset:
-    http://code.google.com/p/go/source/detail?r=fa2c43595119
-
-A new set of methods has been added to the regular expression package, regexp.
-These provide a uniformly named approach to discovering the matches of an
-expression within a piece of text; see the package documentation for details: 
-    http://golang.org/pkg/regexp/
-These new methods will, in a later release, replace the old methods for
-matching substrings.  The following methods are deprecated:
-    Execute (use FindSubmatchIndex)
-    ExecuteString (use FindStringSubmatchIndex)
-    MatchStrings(use FindStringSubmatch)
-    MatchSlices (use FindSubmatch)

-An image.Image now has a Bounds rectangle, where previously it ranged 
-from (0, 0) to (Width, Height). Loops that previously looked like:
-    for y := 0; y < img.Height(); y++ {
-        for x := 0; x < img.Width(); x++ {
-            // Do something with img.At(x, y)
-        }
-    }
-should instead be:
-    b := img.Bounds()
-    for y := b.Min.Y; y < b.Max.Y; y++ {
-        for x := b.Min.X; x < b.Max.X; x++ {
-            // Do something with img.At(x, y)

-This release includes some package changes that may require changes to 
-client code.
-
-The Split function in the bytes and strings packages has been changed.
-The count argument, which limits the size of the return, previously treated
-zero as unbounded. It now treats 0 as 0, and will return an empty slice.  
-To request unbounded results, use -1 (or some other negative value).
-The new Replace functions in bytes and strings share this behavior.
-This may require you change your existing code.
-
-The gob package now allows the transmission of non-struct values at the
-top-level. As a result, the rpc and netchan packages have fewer restrictions
-on the types they can handle.  For example, netchan can now share a chan int.
-
-The release also includes a Code Walk: "Share Memory By Communicating".
-It describes an idiomatic Go program that uses goroutines and channels:
-	http://golang.org/doc/codewalk/sharemem/

-This release contains three language changes:
-
-1. Accessing a non-existent key in a map is no longer a run-time error.  
-It now evaluates to the zero value for that type.  For example:
-        x := myMap[i]   is now equivalent to:   x, _ := myMap[i]
-
-2. It is now legal to take the address of a function's return value.  
-The return values are copied back to the caller only after deferred
-functions have run.
-
-3. The functions panic and recover, intended for reporting and recovering from
-failure, have been added to the spec:
-	http://golang.org/doc/go_spec.html#Handling_panics 
-In a related change, panicln is gone, and panic is now a single-argument
-function.  Panic and recover are recognized by the gc compilers but the new
-behavior is not yet implemented.
-
-The ARM build is broken in this release; ARM users should stay at release.2010-03-22.
-
-Other changes:
-* bytes, strings: add IndexAny.
-* cc/ld: Add support for #pragma dynexport,
-        Rename dynld to dynimport throughout. Cgo users will need to rerun cgo.
-* expvar: default publishings for cmdline, memstats
-* flag: add user-defined flag types.
-* gc: usual bug fixes
-* go/ast: generalized ast filtering.
-* go/printer: avoid reflect in print.

-        support for filtering of command-line output in -src mode,
-        use http GET for remote search instead of rpc.
-* gofmt: don't convert multi-line functions into one-liners,
-        preserve newlines in multiline selector expressions (thanks Risto Jaakko Saarelma).

-There is one language change: the ability to convert a string to []byte or 
-[]int.  This deprecates the strings.Bytes and strings.Runes functions.
-You can convert your existing sources using these gofmt commands:
-	gofmt -r 'strings.Bytes(x) -> []byte(x)' -w file-or-directory-list
-	gofmt -r 'strings.Runes(x) -> []int(x)' -w file-or-directory-list
-After running these you might need to delete unused imports of the "strings" 
-package.

-There are two small language changes: the meaning of chan <- chan int
-is now defined, and functions returning functions do not need to 
-parenthesize the result type.
-
-There is one significant implementation change: the compilers can
-handle multiple packages using the same name in a single binary.
-In the gc compilers, this comes at the cost of ensuring that you
-always import a particular package using a consistent import path.
-In the gccgo compiler, the cost is that you must use the -fgo-prefix
-flag to pass a unique prefix (like the eventual import path).

-Since the last release there has been one large syntactic change to
-the language, already discussed extensively on this list: semicolons
-are now implied between statement-ending tokens and newline characters.
-See http://groups.google.com/group/golang-nuts/t/5ee32b588d10f2e9 for
-details.
-
-By default, gofmt now parses and prints the new lighter weight syntax.
-To convert programs written in the old syntax, you can use:
-
-	gofmt -oldparser -w *.go
-
-Since everything was being reformatted anyway, we took the opportunity to
-change the way gofmt does alignment.  Now gofmt uses tabs at the start
-of a line for basic code alignment, but it uses spaces for alignment of
-interior columns.  Thus, in an editor with a fixed-width font, you can
-choose your own tab size to change the indentation, and no matter what
-tab size you choose, columns will be aligned properly.
-
-
-In addition to the syntax and formatting changes, there have been many
-smaller fixes and updates:
-
-6g,8g,5g: many bug fixes, better registerization,
-   build process fix involving mkbuiltin (thanks Yongjian Xu),
-   method expressions for concrete types

+For clients, there are new
+<a href="/pkg/http/#Client">Client</a> and <a href="/pkg/http/#Transport">Transport</a>
+abstractions that give more control over HTTP details such as headers sent
+and redirections followed.  These abstractions make it easy to implement

+For servers, <a href="/pkg/http/#ResponseWriter">ResponseWriter</a>
+has dropped its non-essential methods.
+The Hijack and Flush methods are no longer required;
+code can test for them by checking whether a specific value implements
+<a href="/pkg/http/#Hijacker">Hijacker</a> or <a href="/pkg/http/#Flusher">Flusher</a>.
+The RemoteAddr and UsingTLS methods are replaced by <a href="/pkg/http/#Request">Request</a>'s
+RemoteAddr and TLS fields.
+The SetHeader method is replaced by a Header method;
+its result, of type <a href="/pkg/http/#Header">Header</a>,
+implements Set and other methods.
+</p>

+<a href="/pkg/net/">Package net</a>
+drops the <code>laddr</code> argument from <a href="/pkg/net/#Conn.Dial">Dial</a>

+The implementation now uses <a href="/cmd/cgo/">cgo</a> to implement

+<a href="/pkg/reflect/">Package reflect</a> has been redesigned.
+<a href="/pkg/reflect/#Type">Type</a> is now an interface that implements
+all the possible type methods.
+Instead of a type switch on a Type <code>t</code>, switch on <code>t.Kind()</code>.
+<a href="/pkg/reflect/#Value">Value</a> is now a struct value that
+implements all the possible value methods.
+Instead of a type switch on a Value <code>v</code>, switch on <code>v.Kind()</code>.
+Typeof and NewValue are now called <a href="/pkg/reflect/#Type.TypeOf">TypeOf</a> and <a href="/pkg/reflect/#Value.ValueOf">ValueOf</a>
+To create a writable Value, use <code>New(t).Elem()</code> instead of <code>Zero(t)</code>.
+See <a href="http://code.google.com/p/go/source/detail?r=843855f3c026">the change description</a>
+for the full details.
+The new API allows a more efficient implementation of Value
+that avoids many of the allocations required by the previous API.

+Remember that gofix will handle the bulk of the rewrites
+necessary for these changes to package APIs.

+all.bash runs tests in short mode to reduce installation time.
+The Makefiles know about the flag: use <code>make testshort</code>.
