+golang (2:1-1) unstable; urgency=low
+
+  Go 1 is a major release of Go that will be stable in the long term.
+  It is intended that programs written for Go 1 will continue to compile
+  and run correctly, unchanged, under future versions of Go 1.
+  
+  The Go 1 release notes list the significant changes since the last
+  release and explain how to update your code:
+         http://golang.org/doc/go1.html
+  
+  To learn about the future of Go 1, read the Go 1 compatibility document:
+         http://golang.org/doc/go1compat.html

+golang (1:58-1) unstable; urgency=low
+
+  Most significant upstream changes in this release:
+  * As usual, gofix will handle the bulk of the rewrites necessary for
+    these changes to package APIs.
+  * Package http drops the finalURL return value from the Client.Get
+    method. The value is now available via the new Request field on
+    http.Response. Most instances of the type map[string][]string in have
+    been replaced with the new Values type.
+  * Package exec has been redesigned with a more convenient and succinct
+    API.
+  * Package strconv's Quote function now escapes only those Unicode code
+    points not classified as printable by unicode.IsPrint. Previously
+    Quote would escape all non-ASCII characters. This also affects the fmt
+    package's "%q" formatting directive. The previous quoting behavior is
+    still available via strconv's new QuoteToASCII function.
+  * Package os/signal's Signal and UnixSignal types have been moved to
+    the os package. 
+  * Package image/draw is the new name for exp/draw. The GUI-related code
+    from exp/draw is now located in the exp/gui package.
+  * Goinstall now observes the GOPATH environment variable to build and
+    install your own code and external libraries outside of the Go tree
+    (and avoid writing Makefiles).
