For adopters, i.e. organizations that want to invent something new on top of existing open-source code, there is a huge difference between the VS Code-kind of open-source where the project is still fully controlled by a single vendor and ve

Cool! We wrapped the VS Code extension in the protocol to support it in gitpod.io. See here https://github.com/theia-ide/go-language-server Would be really awesome to use something maintained by the people who know Go
