Hi Anshul, I have some questions.

(1) You mention that golang 1.26 contains performance and security
updates, but is there anything specific we strongly want in Resolute?
Golang releases every six months, and every release will have some
improvements. The point of Feature Freeze is to stop importing new
things to allow stabilizing the distro. There are FFEs of course, but
they need a rationale that goes beyond the fact that there is a new
version available.

(2) The bug description mentions that "Upgrading the default Go compiler
now ensures the Resolute archive is built against [the new Go
toolchain]". How is that going to happen? Is a mass rebuild of the Go
packages planned? If a mass rebuild is not planned, how are existing
Resolute packages going to benefit from the new toolchain? If the
already-built Resolute package are not going to benefit from the new
golang-defaults, please clarify the bug description, but then please
also clarify _why_ we are doing this. (This is the most important
question I have, thanks @ginggs for helping me putting focus on this
aspect.)

(3) On the PPA rebuild results, you mention "Most of the remaining
failures". It is not clear to me what you mean by "remaining" in that
context. Can you please clarify that?

Thanks!
