Go 1.6 is now in trusty-proposed

[Michael Hudson-Doyle]

Thanks :)

Oh yeah, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/golang-1.6/+bug/1536882
currently has the verification-needed tag -- it would be awesome if
someone (tm) could do some package builds against this version of the
package -- would seem to me to be the ideal SRU verification for
getting the package to migrate to -updates.

Cheers,
mwh
