I think it is a complete given that this will never happen.
I have been looking at GO, playing with it, etc. for maybe six months. I am by no means an expert. I did spend about 20 years doing Java web stuff.
I don't see any way for GO to replace Java for things like
servlets,
JSP, etc. The design aim of GO is very sharp and specific. Kinda like Java's was in the mid-1990s. But Java has grown, layers of stuff added on to it, over and over. Its giant, and frankly a giant mess.
I'd love to see a new, modern language be invented to replace Java. But I don't expect it in my lifetime.
