Yeah, the suggestion is that you should run a caching mirror or manually vendor your dependencies.

Other unconventional ideas about go packaging is that new major versions should have a new package name or be available in a subdirectory with the old version existing in perpetuity, and the minimal version selection approach to dependency conflicts.
