 ## Dependencies
 
+*NOTE: this repo presently uses a fork of govalidator that incorporates https://github.com/asaskevich/govalidator/pull/165. Vendored dependencies must be restored (using `glide install`) to get proper behaviour. In other words, this repo is not currently "go gettable"*
+
 This repository depends upon a [number of external dependencies](./glide.yaml), and we use [Glide](https://glide.sh/) to manage them.  Glide is used to populate the [vendor directory](http://glide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/vendor/), ensuring that builds are reproducible even as upstream dependencies are changed. Please see the [Glide](http://glide.sh/) website for installation instructions.
 
 When creating this project, we had to decide whether or not we committed our external dependencies to the repo.  We decided that we would not, by default, do so.  This lets us avoid the diff churn associated with updating dependencies while allowing an acceptable path to get reproducible builds.  To do so, simply install glide and run `glide install` in your checkout of the code.  We realize this is a judgement call; Please feel free to open an issue if you would like to make a case that we change this policy.
