My personal impression is that Go slowly tilts over the hype peak and becomes just another tool in the box (that is a good thing, IMHO). The golang-codereview mailing list is very active, so I do not see any indication that Go crawls in a corner and dies any soon.
For non-typical web backend development and network programming I find the included libraries excellent. Probably I would not use it for a straightforward CRUD server. What do you mean by general development?
