I'm curious to the reasoning behind moving a bunch of standard library stuff to external packages, listed at the end of the blog post. Faster compiling? Smaller executables? Faster development for each now separate package?

I saw that list, and figured that they were distancing themselves from obsolete encryption (MD5 & SHA-1), as well as remove database management from their scope (which seems like the right move, IMO).
