2026-08-19 releases: 1.27.0-1

[bot-for-go]

This issue tracks the status of ongoing microsoft/go releases and the image release from microsoft/go-images. I am a bot, and I'll keep the issue up to date and add a comment when I notice something happen that likely requires the release runner to take some manual action.

For more information about the microsoft/go release process, see docs/release-process in microsoft/go-infra.

Completed releasing one version! If every version's release-build and innerloop tests are successful, approve the release-go-images build to continue.

This appears to be a new major version! If so, here are the major version related updates to do when the release is done:

• Update the microsoft/go download links - update Downloads.md for 1.27 release #2464
• Update the internal site's download links - https://devdiv.visualstudio.com/DevDiv/_git/EngHub-LanguagesAtMS/pullrequest/772050
• Update the recommended Docker tags and clean up unsupported Dockerfiles - Remove EOL Go 1.25 images and update recommended tags for 1.27 go-images#679
• Clean up the FIPS README to focus on currently supported releases
