As agreed upon by the Code of Conduct working group, "race" may refer to
an attempt to classify people based on "defining characteristics",
regardless of how this people view themselves, while "ethnicity" refers
to how people identify themselves.
The Code of Conduct working group believes that the term "ethnicity"
will be more comprehensive and inclusive, and will better serve the Go
community.

A 16bit binary exponent permits a constant range covering roughly the range
from 7e-9865 to 7e9863 which is more than enough for any practical and
hypothetical constant arithmetic.
Furthermore, until recently cmd/compile could not handle very large exponents
correctly anyway; i.e., the chance that any real programs (but for tests that
explore corner cases) are affected are close to zero.
Finally, restricting the minimum supported range significantly reduces the
implementation complexity in an area that hardly matters in reality for new
or alternative spec-compliant implementations that don't or cannot rely on
pre-existing arbitratry precision arithmetic packages that support a 32bit
exponent range.
This is technically a language change but for the reasons mentioned above
this is unlikely to affect any real programs, and certainly not programs
compiled with the gc or gccgo compilers as they currently support up to
32bit exponents.
Fixes#13572.

This is a backwards-compatible language change.
Per the proposal (#16085), the rules for conversions are relaxed
such that struct tags in any of the structs involved in the conversion
are ignored (recursively).
Because this is loosening the existing rules, code that compiled so
far will continue to compile.

The download page says "OS X 10.8 or later", but other pages said 10.7.
Say 10.8 everywhere.
Turns out Go doesn't even compile on OS X 10.7 (details in bug) and we
only run builders for OS X 10.8+, which is likely why 10.7
regressed. Until recently we only had OS X 10.10 builders, even.
We could run 10.7 builders, but there's basically no reason to do so,
especially with 10.12 coming out imminently.
