Let me correct some mistakes:

- Go (gc) runs on Windows just fine. Go under Windows is now well-supported. We'll do a better job of communicating this once we (the Go team) are able to provide Google-built Windows binaries (currently they're provided by the community). This will come with Go 1 early next year.

- Go for App Engine is near feature parity with the Java and Python runtimes. It will come out of experimental early next year.

- The Go App Engine SDK will be available for Windows early next year.

I'm a bit insulted that you call our (very strenuous) efforts half-hearted, but I guess you can't please everyone.
