I'd suggest adding the following to SAOC 2018 project proposals :

1/ adding a Go-like http module to the standard library
2/ adding Go-like async IO management to the standard library, 
i.e. fibers communicating through blocking channels
3/ possibility to use automatic reference counting (with weak 
references) instead of garbage collection for automatic unused 
memory deallocation
4/ adding automatic cycle detection and collection to the 
automatic reference counting system

Thanks :)
