Another "Go is Python-like" article.

In a recent Reg article, there's yet more yammering on about how Go is
somehow akin to Python -- referring to Go as a "Python-C++" crossbreed.

I still don't get it.

What about Go, exactly, do people see as Phython-like?

Go doesn't seem to have any of the salient features (either syntactic
or semantic) of Python other than garbage collection.

How is Go not just warmed-over Java?
