+The r58 release corresponds to
+weekly.2011-06-09
+with additional bug fixes.
+This section highlights the most significant changes in this release.
+For a more detailed summary, see the
+weekly release notes.
+For complete information, see the
+Mercurial change list.
+
+This release fixes a use of uninitialized memory in programs that misuse goto.
+
+As usual, gofix will handle the bulk of the rewrites +necessary for these changes to package APIs. +
+ +
+Package http drops the finalURL return
+value from the Client.Get method. The value
+is now available via the new Request field on http.Response.
+Most instances of the type map[string][]string in have been
+replaced with the new Values type.
+
+Package exec has been redesigned with a more +convenient and succinct API. +
+ +
+Package strconv's Quote
+function now escapes only those Unicode code points not classified as printable
+by unicode.IsPrint.
+Previously Quote would escape all non-ASCII characters.
+This also affects the fmt package's "%q"
+formatting directive. The previous quoting behavior is still available via
+strconv's new QuoteToASCII function.
+
+Package os/signal's +Signal and +UnixSignal types have been moved to the +os package. +
+ +
+Package image/draw is the new name for
+exp/draw. The GUI-related code from exp/draw is now
+located in the exp/gui package.
+
+Goinstall now observes the GOPATH environment +variable to build and install your own code and external libraries outside of +the Go tree (and avoid writing Makefiles). +
