A perfectly maintained package would look like this: - uses proper stable versioning (e.g. gopkg.in), making sure not to introduce breaking changes in the same major version - backports critical/security fixes into previous stable versions - has their code reviewed by a third party - provides notifications for critical fixes/security advisories - provides support for package users Not all packages are perfectly maintained, though (even my personal packages are not). Consider this sample of third-party packages from one of my project: github.com/boltdb/bolt github.com/dchest/cache github.com/dchest/conf github.com/dchest/validator github.com/hashicorp/logutils github.com/justinas/nosurf github.com/stretchr/graceful github.com/stretchr/pat/stop golang.org/x/crypto/bcrypt golang.org/x/crypto/blowfish

golang.org/x/net/netutil If I'm having a production app running that uses these packages, I have to track all of them, making sure I don't miss some critical bug fix. StableLib will do this for you: just subscribe and you'll get notified of updates, and you will receive backported fixes, so that you can update without worrying of breaking our apps.
