Yes, the Foundations team understands this requirement and is committed to
delivery of golang 1.6 in Ubuntu for 16.04 and to assist the owners of
packages implemented in go with adoption of shared library support.

While discussions are still ongoing regarding how this will be handled over
the long term, the Foundations team is committed to be the point of contact
for the golang package and to ensure that this toolchain is properly
supported in Ubuntu.

I believe Michael Hudson-Doyle is actively working on this.  While Michael
isn't on the Foundations team, I think you can consider this a de facto
committment.
