So the Python is YET again first, so what? Why not move to Python then, if you need it so badly? REBOL is just a tool. Use tool best suiting your service for the task given ... > http://mathema.tician.de/software/pyopencl > with full documentation and wiki > open OpenCL C# Wrapper/bindings and C++ versions too, > But No rebol wrappers. > > and thats a shame for yet another potentially missed chance to get > in early > with something, indeed Anything rebol core/view related in to new > markets. > You have to be living on some alien planet, no? (I like Alien series movies) :-) Why are you ignoring all the R3 development related efforts, and the energy ppl put into it? R3 is even not in beta (hopefully soon), and we have other issues to solve first. Noone will do it for R2 imo, it's DLL interface is kind of limited. OTOH - there's some potentially good news for you - R3 got first version of its Extension (plugins) interface. There are hopefully going to be done some small enhancements before we go to beta. Max already started to test some OpenGL stuff, and it worked. So - stay tuned, now at least the capable infrastructure is going to be available. Will it mean someone will pick-up your request and link to OpenCL? I don't know. We are quite small community, but the possibility is here. What I am definitely interested in is ffmpeg wrapper and REBOL video player. I might need it commercially in the future, and I might a bit sponsor the effort. You can count on it, that the code will be BSD, if it is sponsored by me. I am starting to learn C, but it will have to be done by someone else, and that is always the reality. Remember the size of the REBOL community, please. In the past, I proposed Bounty program for REBOL. I think we could sponsor such kind of developments this way - being it video, networking, security, whatever. We will see what happens, once R3 goes into beta, Host code is open-sourced, etc. David, now just answer one question for me - would you yourself find any usage for video related work? Because it seems to me, that you are REBOL fan, who would just like to see such things, in order to make REBOL more popular. But once again - with the size of the REBOL community in mind, we don't have the luxury to waste on human resources available ... -pekr- -- To unsubscribe from the list, just send an email to lists at rebol.com with unsubscribe as the subject.
