I appreciate why you use "golang" instead of the general "Go" or current release "Go1", but the former is the name of the open source organization, and the latter is the name of the language.
You are mistaken. There is no organization that maintains the Go project. The project and language are both named Go.
"golang" is just the name of the domain and a more searchable term than "go." There is nothing more to it than that.
Fair. Then what's the name of the implementation? The same as the language? How do I refer to:
* Go, the specification
* gccgo
* 6g and friends: the compilers
Go, gccgo, and gc respectively.
