+This weekly snapshot is very close to what we expect will be the contents of +the Go 1 release. There are still a few minor documentation issues to resolve, +and a handful of bugs that should be addressed before the release, but the vast +majority of Go programs should be completely unaffected by any changes we make +between now and the full release. + +If you're interested in helping us test, eager to try out Go 1, or just +curious, this weekly snapshot is the one to try. We'll issue a new App Engine +Go 1 beta SDK very soon, so if you're an App Engine user you can try it there +too. + +To help us focus on any remaining bugs and avoid introducing new ones, we will +restrict our attention to critical fixes and issues marked Go1-Must in the +issue tracker. Everything non-essential will be held until after the Go 1 +release is cut and in the field for a while. + +Changes in this snapshot: +* archive/zip: verify CRC32s in non-streamed files, + write data descriptor signature for OS X;
