 From a maintenance point of view we really need to make sure that we 
can update PyViennaCL and/or ViennaCL without creating lots of 
headaches. This will not only help us, but also our prospective users 
and packagers. From your description it seems that the best way to 
achieve just this is to split the trees up. :-)

Also, feel free to push changes to the ViennaCL core as needed :-)

Best regards,
Karli
