proposal: cmd/go: drop support for binary-only packages
Binary-only packages were added in #golang 1.7, and they're getting difficult to support as the compiler and tooling improves. Should they be kept?https://github.com/golang/go/issues/28152 …
"...we added binary-only packages originally so that a professor could hand out binary solution sets so that a student who didn't finish lab 2 could still move on to lab 3." Wow. I thought it was to support closed-source packages? I hope the proposal is accepted -- good riddance

While the professor filed the bug, it's also possible that people *were* using them for proprietary source code distribution and just didn't really talk about it.
