AFAIK almost all derelict repos are maintained almost solely by 
aldacron, and he maintains a _lot_ of them. 
https://github.com/DerelictOrg

p.s., googling "golang cuda" comes up with almost nothing useful 
at the top - 4-5 links to the FOSDEM video and some pdfs. I'm not 
being biased, I seriously can't figure out anything beyond the 
fosdem video for cuda with go.

First result for "dlang cuda" for me is the dub repo for derelict 
cuda.
