Very exciting. I'd vote +1 for splitting them out. Especially if you look at the common way of using Go imports, just stick the project on GitHub and import it directly using "github.com/mesos/mesos-go" or similar.
I guess one argument is that you have more fragmentation of the code (e.g every library has it's own copy of the protos) but I'm not sure that's a bad thing. Just my two cents.
