About

This blog is intended to record progress on porting Google’s Go language to NetBSD. There is an open item #611 in Google’s issue tracker for this.

Initial efforts are going to concentrate on the 386 (a.k.a. i386) and amd64 ports; in theory it should be possible to port to NetBSD arm platfoms as well.

As yet there’s no mailing list: should there be desire for one, I’ll create one. For now, feel free to add comments to the blog, which I’ll endeavour to keep updated as I update the patches.

All assistance is welcome. Feel free to dig in. No questions are too foolish to ask!

There’s a page of general information here:

The in-progress diffs are maintained here:
