A few weeks ago, I needed to find a good way to host my own Go packages at vanity URLs (I got really tired of "github.com/lib/lib"). Between GitHub Pages, spinning up a web server or trying to leverage S3... I chose to go for a custom, low-touch solution. Gopkg started as a simple service that pulls Go package information from the domain's DNS records, thus preserving authenticity of records when served as a web page. I decided that it is good enough to be shared with others, and hence I made it look prettier! If you're a Go developer, I invite you to check it out. I hope you will find it useful. I want to grow it into something bigger -- an unintrusive contact point with developers who use your code.
