Almost all TODOS, but the structure is there and it has the details
from go1.3.txt, which is hereby deleted.

<h2 id="introduction">Introduction to Go 1.3</h2>
<p>
The latest Go release, version 1.3, arrives six months after 1.2,
and contains no language changes.
It does have some important developments, though,
including a refinement to the memory model regarding synchronization,
precise garbage collection,
significant performance improvements,
including TODO,
and support for Google's Native Client architecture (NaCl).
As always, Go 1.3 keeps the <a href="/doc/go1compat.html">promise
of compatibility</a>,
and almost everything
will continue to compile and run without change when moved to 1.3.
</p>
<h2 id="os">Changes to the supported operating systems and architectures</h2>
<h3 id="nacl">Support for Native Client</h3>
<p>
TODO
</p>
<h3 id="solaris">Support for Solaris</h3>
<p>
TODO
</p>
<h3 id="windows2000">Removal of support for Windows 2000</h3>
<p>
TODO
windows 2000 removed (CL 74790043)
</p>
<h2 id="memory">Changes to the memory model</h2>
<p>
TODO:
early go documentation suggested using a channel as a semaphore like this: (previous example).
the go memory model has been updated to make explicit that this idiom is allowed. (new example).
the previous example is also correct, just requiring needless func init work.
(CL 75130045)
</p>
<h2 id="impl">Changes to the implementations and tools</h2>
<h3 id="stacks">Stack</h3>
<p>
TODO stack copying, no longer segmented
</p>
<h3 id="stack_size">Stack size</h3>
<p>
Go 1.2 increased the minimum stack size to 8 kilobytes; with the new stack model, it has been
put back to 4 kilobytes.
</p>
<p>
<em>Updating</em>: TODO
