Please consider assigning version numbers and tagging releases. Tags/releases
are useful for downstream package maintainers (in Debian and other distributions) to export source tarballs, automatically track new releases and to declare dependencies between packages. Read more in the Debian Upstream Guide.

Versioning provides additional benefits to encourage vendoring of a particular (e.g. latest stable) release contrary to random unreleased snapshots.

Thank you.

Sounds good.

Another thing I want to consider is a compatibility to gopkg.in. So I'll tag the very initial release as "v1.0.0".
