I'm not so sure about giving credit. Consider:

  package main
  import "fmt"
  func blah() bool {
     return false
  }
  func main() {
    x := 5
    if(blah()) {
      x++;
    }
    fmt.Printf("%d\n", x)
  }
(which prints 5) and then this:

  package main
  import "fmt"
  func blah() bool {
     return false
  }
  func main() {
    x := 5
    if(blah())
    {
      x++;
    }
    fmt.Printf("%d\n", x)
  }
(which prints 6). Looks like a major problem to me, and at any rate it's a far cry from having made real (or any) progress. Python _did_ get whitespace right.
