I don't know, perhaps one of the durianers can elaborate on this. I 
myself see pro's and con's in using this library inside Blender. It has 
already solved issues we are trying to tackle now, but looking at the 
requirements that our users have, I am not sure that the library will be 
that suitable (granularity of the nodes/operators).

No implementing a (tile based) node will be different, but easier. The 
hard part will not be visible to the node developer. The developer is 
not aware that OpenCL exists or that it is tiled based. There will be a 
difference as everything has to be written as pixelprocessors. Currently 
I don't have seen the requirement that non-tiled based nodes are needed. 
I have seen the requirement for non-opencl nodes (Py expressions, Image 
loading and saving, displaying, etc) so that is in scope.
