proposal: all: drop netbsd/arm64 port #50451

Closed

Description

@bcmills

The requirements for a Go port include that “At least one developer must be named (and agree) to maintain the port, by making required updates in a timely manner as architecture or operating system requirements change.”

The only builder currently running for netbsd/arm64 is failing frequently with a platform-specific failure mode that cannot be easily skipped (#42422), and the last activity on the tracking issue from the folks I believe to be the port maintainers (@bsiegert, @coypoop, and possibly @4a6f656c?) was over a year ago — a substantial amount of time to look into the issue even given the upheaval of the past couple of years.

Given the lack of progress on getting the builder to a passing state, I think it is time to drop this port from the mainline Go project.
