    Well, its why OpenCL was invented in the first place. Using GLSL for even generic computing tasks that don't fit the OpenGL workflow is problematic and really not worth it.

    I don't want to shoot down anyone's hopes, but Mesa already is growing OpenCL support for Gallium. What more could we possibly ask for?
    best wishes ?
    quicker Gallium3D adoption ?
    quicker Mesa development[along with Gallium3D] ?
    better drivers[esp free drivers. now about 10x times slower than proprietary counterparts] ?
    more suitable SDK' ?
    AMD/NVidia support for both developers and OpenCL itself[today Intel CPU's had better OpenCL support than Nvidia GPU's].
    and yes OpenCL/OpenGL ES is cool. at least in theory. heil glorious OpenMAXdeveloper


    Mesa and Gallium are open source projects, you can always start developing for them.
