MongoDB Go Driver Alpha 8

The MongoDB Go driver team is pleased to release the eighth alpha of the official Go driver.

This release adds support for network compression. Additionally, there are improvements to the index management functionality in the driver. This is alpha software, so it is not recommended for production use.

Following semver, the v0 version of the public API should not be considered stable and could change.

Documentation can be found on GoDoc. Questions and inquiries can be asked on the mongo-go-driver Google Group. Bugs can be reported in the Go Driver Jira where a list of current issues can be found.
