So, do you consider the Go1 compatibility guarantee to be a mistake? Most suggested stdlib or lang improvements are DOA for the time being as a result, which is annoying, but of course so too would be frequent breakages.
I'm curious about your take, since you have some relevant experience.

No, I think a language basically has to declare that level of compatibility for a major version. The important part is to get as much real-world feedback and iteration in as possible before you bang the 1.0 gong.
