So far we've waited for official releases (and that reminds me I need to bump Java). Except Golang can easily reference different versions as necessary (and we've had to do that before to pick up fixes, we should bump to the released 12.0.0 if we haven't already though).
That said for C# I think it would be OK to use a submodule for now while we get things working (and C# just might not be included in releases for the time being).
