...that Ian Lance Taylor is departing Google
and taking a break from Go.

Ian has been an inspiration and a leader by example
of how to foster and create a vibrant technical
community. To me, and I suspect to many, he has been the face of 
Go for over a decade. He sets the highest bar
for professionalism, technical prowess and innovation
on very hard problems, all while being unwaveringly 
kind, welcoming to new comers, and answering
new and old Gopher's hardest and most basic
questions here on golang-nuts.

Words cannot express my gratitude for all the
help you have given me over the years.
Warmest wishes, Ian, on your next adventure.

Jason

Ian was amongst the few guys that took time to answer some of my questions in Golang nuts. Respect to sensei Ian :-)

May I ask if there will be any further developments on Generics in gofrontend going forward?

All the best to Ian, thanks for the huge work on Go (hopefully it can continue) and also, for those of us of a certain age, for Taylor UUCP and more :)

I hope so. But no guarantees.

But let me ask in turn: why do you care? What are you using gofrontend for?

Thank you so much Ian! Although, it's extremely sad to see you less on Go, al the best on your new plans!
