This statement doesn't sound like the "no generics" is the
important part. It seems more like they have no plans to make Go
2.0, at least not with it bringing big breaking changes as people
keep pointing out will happen.
But that is probably reading too much into it, I can't imagine he
wanted to put that much information in the statement. But then
again I haven't seen any official word on Go 2.0 (similar to D3).
