Yeah they started and then they cancled it. The go plugins, are far away of 
usable. I talked to the devs, because you can see no source Code in the plugin 
Portal. One Project is at github now, the other one, I’m waiting for the Code. 
And there are Features missing to implement it as a plugin for NetBeans like 
the Options for indentation, you can’t do it. The Problem still exists for the

Someone has already been working for free on implementing that:

Here's another one:

http://plugins.netbeans.org/plugin/62162/go-project

Here's another one:

http://plugins.netbeans.org/plugin/25606/go

And there's probably more, in various states of usefulness and stability.

Under Apache, what we'll be able to have is a central place where everyone
working on Go can work together. We've never had such a central neutral
place before, it's always been various people working on their own outside
Sun or Oracle and never without an organized structure for interacting and
co-operating with each other.

There's very few technologies and languages for which some kind of support
doesn't already exist for NetBeans over the years -- all created for free
by enthusiastic supporters of one technology or another. In answer to your
question -- people work for free to create tooling for a technology, such
as Go, in order to promote that technology, for whatever reason.
