Re: [ViennaCL-devel] Release 1.6.0 approaching

[Karl Rupp]

Hi all,

quick update to the timeline for the 1.6.0 release: Things are 
progressing well, yet not fast enough in order to have a release 
tomorrow. I'm now aiming for a release on Monday.

Best regards,
Karli

 Hi everybody,

 we are finally approaching the 1.6.0 release, for which all the major
 items are now completed. Here's a quick (incomplete) overview of what
 has been done and what still needs to be done:

 * OpenCL: The GEMM kernels show some issues in the nightly tests when
 used with matrix ranges. Philippe will have a look at it as soon as he
 finds some time.

 * Device Database: A couple of devices are already registered, some more
 will enter soon.

 * Documentation: The 'old' PDF manual is now converted to an
 all-integrated Doxygen HTML documentation. The list of examples and
 tests still needs to be created, but that's relatively low effort. I
 expect this to make ViennaCL much more accessible (e.g. better indexing
 from search engines).

 * Issue-Tracker on GitHub: The big ones are essentially done and just
 require a final verification. I'll take care of the smaller ones during
 the next days.

 * Iterative solvers: The pipelined CG and BiCGStab implementations work
 like a charm, GMRES still needs to be migrated from its feature-branch,
 but the implementation already works for all three compute backends.

 If no unexpected delays occur, we should have a release by the end of
 next week (~Friday, Oct 31). Once ViennaCL 1.6.0 is out, I'd like to
 polish up and release the Benchmark GUI shortly after.

 @Toby: What are your plans regarding the next PyViennaCL release?

 Best regards,
 Karli

 Hi Matt,

  Seeing as how you are approaching a new release. I quickly ran the

 latest development branch through my test suite on MSVC 2013.  I got the
 following compiler errors.  Only a few modules had issues and what I
 depend on seems to be quite good!


 I see, these are mostly from the new modules we merged in recently. I
 haven't checked them with Visual Studio yet and need to apply a little bit
 more polishing there.


   Mostly simple fixes and I can do pull
 requests over the next week if you would like or leave them up to the
 original developers.


 If you don't mind the effort of creating a pull request, I'd prefer that
 you create a pull request so that you also get the 'credits' :-) However,
 please wait until mid next week as there may be some more changes to the
 code base in the meanwhile.


 Thanks and best regards,
 Karli
