DCompute: Driver APIs are here

[Nicholas Wilson via Digitalmars-d-announce]

Hi all,

I am happy to announce that the driver APIs for both OpenCL and 
CUDA are now here[1]! They are not yet feature complete and still 
have a lot more polishing and testing to be done, but the ground 
work is there. That should give contributors a scope to work on 
and help break up the work that needs to be done into more 
manageable pieces.

I'll put up a release of LLVM and LDC for both OSX and Windows 
(now that I finally got it to link) soon for anyone who wants to 
try it out or start contributing, the more hand helping and 
testing the better. Also I'm looking for someone who would be 
interested in co-presenting at the international workshop on 
OpenCL in Edinburgh (mid May) on an application of DCompute.

I will be continuing to work on this and do testing in my spare 
time until I start work (Laeeth: how's the office moving and 
infrastructure migration going ;) ), but now the foundation is 
there hopefully development will start to pick up.

Nic
