Go package management proposal process

[Peter Bourgon]

Hello,

For well over a year, a group of dedicated Gophers have been
discussing the package management situation on a dedicated mailing
list, in Slack #vendor, and several communication channels. A few
tools have emerged from those broad conversations, including Glide,
govendor, gb, and the SAT solver gps. And at GopherCon 2016, a panel
with several members of the core Go team was held.

While much remains to be decided, a few things are clear. The package
management solution, whatever it will be, will take the form of one or
more official Go language proposals. And the proposals (and their
eventual implementation) will be driven by a small committee of
dedicated Gophers.

In the interest of progress, I've volunteered to shepherd this process
from start to finish. I've created a document detailing a proposal for
the process itself. If this topic interests you, please review and
comment.

As much as anything can be official, I hope that this will be the
official process, leading to the long-desired blessed solution.

Regards,
Peter Bourgon.
