I'm not quite sure about kotlin being interoperable with golang, because kotlin was originally made to combat the problems with js and java that other languages made for the JVM or V8 engine couldn't answer. Now that the native compiler is being made, it's specifically, as I see it from all the documents, for targeting areas of development where "a virtualized language is not desires" such as IoT, iOS, game development (maybe), and others. Golang doesn't really need an interop with kotlin specifically. I don't have much experience with Golang but I'm pretty sure that since Golang is pretty close to the machine without getting too intimate hardware, and since that it was made for big applications to handle high amounts of broadband and server traffic, I'm pretty sure it can be interoperable with C (and C++, not sure about that though, but since that C++ is interoperable with C, anything can be interoperable with C if you have the right code) and if that is the case, you can just use Kotlin Native to generate some C code that can communicate with C genned from Golang code. I don't know the process behind that because I have never done that before (not yet at least) but I'm pretty sure that is why there is no support for a Kotlin-Golang interoperability. It would only be harder work than it is worth right now, and native is good enough for a push into the public industry, if any more projects are added for kotlin interoperability, it will only generate more and more hate than it already has right now. Unless there have been plans for a golang interop, then all my words are practically null-n-void, but as I see it, there shouldn't be any more plans for interoperating with any other languages than there are right now.
