I'm not opposed to eventually merging scikits.cuda with pycuda (the
licenses, after all, are essentially compatible), but since they are
currently developed by different developers and many users of the
latter don't need the functionality provided by the former, I suspect
that maintaining them as separately developed projects that can each
be developed at a different pace is preferable for the time being.
