Hello.
I have been reading "Maemo Base Port Technical Requirements"
v 1.1 from 25.1.2010 by Jari Palojärvi

In chapter 3.4.4 OpenCL one can read:
The Base Port should provide an implementation of the OpenCL 1.0
interface for general-purpose parallel programming of heterogeneous
systems, especially for the use of GPUs for computation
(Khronos group standard).

I have enabled Extras, Extras-testing and Extras-Devel
repositories but could not find any package regarding OpenCL.
`apt-cache search opencl` returned no packages.

I have found only two threads on t.m.o mentioning OpenCL
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=35950
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=32475
both of them from 2009, and both ending with "it would
be good to have".

So, official Nokia document requires Maemo devices to provide
OpenCL capabilities but currently there is no possibility
to write code using OpenCL. Is it just left for later to implement
(first go updates, additional features must wait) or MeeGo changed
everything and there is no hope for OpenCL?

Best regards.
