I don't expect the runtime to be _written_ in Go, however, when I first saw this title, a little tiny piece of me was hoping it would be a runtime _for_ Go.


So much of Android middleware is written in Java, and uses Android Java's IPC and RPC, a "second runtime" in Android would be a second class citizen.

Android-in-Go, with the middleware in Go, would be a different OS. Maybe a good one, but it would not be Android.


First the Go developers need to overcome a few religious issues, like support for dynamic loading.
