Per the note earlier in the page, GODEBUGs are maintained for a minimum of two years (four Go releases). Not said but certainly implied is that they are maintained for four Go releases from the point where people started needing to use them. Since people would start needing gotypesalias=0 in Go 1.23, it can be removed in Go 1.27.

Release Notes
The initial
and next
subdirectories of this directory are for release notes.
For developers
Release notes should be added to next
by editing existing files or creating
new files. Do not add RELNOTE=yes comments in CLs. Instead, add a file to
the CL (or ask the author to do so).
At the end of the development cycle, the files will be merged by being concatenated in sorted order by pathname. Files in the directory matching the glob "*stdlib/*minor" are treated specially. They should be in subdirectories corresponding to standard library package paths, and headings for those package paths will be generated automatically.
Files in this repo's api/next
directory must have corresponding files in
doc/next/*stdlib/*minor
.
The files should be in the subdirectory for the package with the new
API, and should be named after the issue number of the API proposal.
For example, if the directory 6-stdlib/99-minor
is present,
then an api/next
file with the line
pkg net/http, function F #12345
should have a corresponding file named doc/next/6-stdlib/99-minor/net/http/12345.md
.
At a minimum, that file should contain either a full sentence or a TODO,
ideally referring to a person with the responsibility to complete the note.
Use the following forms in your markdown:
[http.Request] # symbol documentation; auto-linked as in Go doc strings
[#12345](/issue/12345) # GitHub issues
[CL 6789](/cl/6789) # Gerrit changelists
For the release team
At the start of a release development cycle, the contents of next
should be deleted
and replaced with those of initial
. From the repo root:
> cd doc
> rm -r next/*
> cp -r initial/* next
Then edit next/1-intro.md
to refer to the next version.
To prepare the release notes for a release, run golang.org/x/build/cmd/relnote generate
.
That will merge the .md
files in next
into a single file.
