this is just to let you know that go-mode has been added to the NonGNU ELPA repository. It will be enabled by default from Emacs 28 and onwards making go-mode easier to install.
Form a packaging perspective, the main differences are that NonGNU checks for commits that bump the version tag when identifying stable releases (instead of tagged commits like MELPA) and that by default, stable versions are distributed.

In case you are interested, feel free to mention that go-mode can be installed via NonGNU ELPA: https://elpa.nongnu.org/nongnu/go-mode.html
