How to contribute to /x/ ?

[Jen Zarzycki]

I'd like to submit an implementation of sync.Map (using generics) to the golang.org/x/sync repo.

Would someone please point me in the right direction?

If you want to propose an API change, please start by submitting a
proposal here: https://github.com/golang/go/issues, thanks.

General information on how to contribute to the Go project (which includes /x/…) is in the contribution guide:

https://go.dev/doc/contribute

But yes, as Jan mentions, the starting point (as is also mentioned there) is to open a proposal.

FWIW, I believe that the Go team is aware of the want of a generic sync.Map and thinking about how to do that.

I didn't find a proposal for it, so I submitted one here: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/52085

I added a link on it to the discussion thread Alex provided.

Thank you both!
