to its container regardless of layout. It uses the standard hack for

not have uniform aspect ratios so that information is injected into the

to the same layout present before this change.

I've reorganized the guide and rewritten large sections.
The structure is now more clear and logical, and can
be understood and navigated using the summary displayed at
the top of the page (before, the summary was confusing because
the guide contained H1s that were being ignored by the summary).
Both the initial onboarding process and the Gerrit
change submission process have been reworked to
include a concise checklist of steps that can be
read and understood in a few seconds, for people
that don't want or need to bother with details.
More in-depth descriptions have been moved into
separate sections, one per each checklist step.
This is by far the biggest improvement, as the previous
approach of having to read several pages just to understand
the requires steps was very scaring for beginners, in
addition of being harder to navigate.
GitHub pull requests have been integrated as a different
way to submit a change, suggested for first time contributors.
The review process has been described in more details,
documenting the workflow and the used conventions.
Most miscellanea have been moved into an "advanced
topics" chapter.
Paragraphs describing how to use git have been removed
to simplify reading. This guide should focus on Go contribution,
and not help users getting familiar with git, for which many
guides are available.

The EBNF production

for the latter it shortened the syntax slightly.
This change "inlines" Function which simplifies FunctionDecl and
MethodDecl and gets rid of the Function production.
This has no impact on the specified language. Also, the Function
production is never referred to by the prose, so it's safe to
remove it from the spec.
Finally, neither go/ast nor go/parser have a representation of
this production via a corresponding node or parse function, so
no possibly valuable documentation is lost, either.

Now the spec consistently uses the terms:
- "defined type" for a type declared via a type definition
- "type name" for any name denoting an (alias or defined) type
- "alias" for a type name declared in an alias declaration
New prose is encouraged to avoid the term "named type" to counter-

GOMIPS is a GOARCH=mips{,le} specific option, for a choice between
hard-float and soft-float. Valid values are 'hardfloat' (default) and
'softfloat'. It is passed to the assembler as
'GOMIPS_{hardfloat,softfloat}'.
Note: GOMIPS will later also be used for a choice of MIPS instruction
set (mips32/mips32r2).

The note about the single change workflow is included in the
git-codereview installation instructions, but it has nothing to do with
installing git-codereview. This note is more relevant for when a change

There were too many changes of direction. Tidy up the intro a little

If people are interested in contributing to Go, but not sure what
change they'd like to make just yet, we can point them to the scratch
repo, so they can go through the process of submitting and merging
something now, and make more useful contributions later.
My evidence that sending people to the scratch repo would encourage
future contributions is that a number of people who went through the
workshop at Gophercon have continued to send CL's after submitting to
the scratch repo, even though I doubt they planned to before going
through the workshop.

A method expression is of the form T.m where T is a type and m
is a method of that type. The spec restricted T essentially to
a type name. Both cmd/compile and go/types accepted any type
syntactically, and a method expression was really just a form
of a selector expression x.f where x denotes a type.
This CL removes the spec syntax restriction from MethodExpr
to match the actual implementation. It also moves MethodExpr
from Operand to PrimaryExpr, because that's what it is.
It still keeps the separate notion of MethodExpr even though
it looks just like a selector expresion, since a MethodExpr
must start with a type rather than a value, and the spec's
syntax expresses this bit of semantics via distinct productions
(e.g., conversions look like calls but also must start with
a type).
Fixes#9060.
