I don't get it. Go is a google sponsored project. Nobody cries about .net core including Microsoft logos, or Java using Oracle's, kotlin with jetbrains, etc.<p>I honestly think it's better that the logo is prominently displayed, lest people forget who actually controls the language.
I’m quite far from the ongoing Go community discussions, but this seems to be a perfect example?<p>> We’ve discusses this internally and decided...<p>As one commenter on the PR points out, they’ve discussed it internally, now it’s time to discuss as a community, but this issue has still been closed.<p>I don’t have an opinion on the actual topic here, but if Google don’t want to be perceived as doing whatever they like with Go and not involving the community, then they have to at least have these discussions. Even if they come to the table with strong opinions and good reasons, keeping up the appearance of community involvement like in this issue creates a culture of Go being community driven, and right now that culture is lacking.
This is overly snarky and should be closed for that alone.<p>Google funded its development. OSS projects do this. React has Copyright Facebook, yet I don’t see snarky PRs about scrubbing their name. Maybe Google’s logo shouldn’t be colorful?
If the community wants to have a say in go's future without Google's veto, then the community should just fork the code and move ahead.<p>Otherwise it's still Google's thing.
How about Angular? Isn't it a Google product as well? How come it doesn't have the Google logo on <a href="https://angular.io/" rel="nofollow">https://angular.io/</a>? Maybe someone should raise a ticket to request for the Google logo to be included like in Go? For the sake of consistency...
