We (the Paas SIG) have made several versions of golang on cbs. The Virt SIG has as well. Just find the version you are looking for [1] and tag it into your build targets -candidate tag. You'll need to wait until your repo is rebuilt (automatic, often in under 30 minutes) and there you have it, you now get that version of golang. One warning. You will get *that* version of golang. If the version is extra's updates to something else that you want, you will have to untag your version of golang.

Hi,
Currently CentOS Extras contains golang-1.4.2, but newer versions have been released since. Is there a plan for updating golang any time soon?
In the CentOS Storage SIG we have a package (heketi) that started to depend on golang-1.6.2 (iirc). For us the older version of Golang in Extrasa results in preventing to update Heketi, and so users will not get the new features that are released upstream.
If Extras can not get a newer version of Golang (soonish), what is the preferred approach to make an updated version of Golang available for repositories in a SIG?
Thanks! Niels
