GCloud – Go Packages for Cloud Services

  • This appears to just be a stubbed out simplistic API at this point[1]. Currently, only method names, without even parameter types are listed. The project is also requesting funding[2]. Seems a bit premature to me. But, I wish the project luck.

  • Please, one of the most annoying aspects of TechCrunch was the incessant stream of vapourware marketing. I love the lack of this type of posting on HN almost as much as I love the insightful community and lack of drama; but as much as I love hacking with Go this type of post is a real turn off.

  • Fwiw, rackspace is funding/working on a library just for this - multi cloud interface, OpenStack and rackspace cloud support, and AWS and other welcome.

    We have it on github already: https://github.com/rackspace/gophercloud
