Hi all,

Some of you may remember compyte discussions last year when I made the
suggestion of creating a library with a compilation of GPGPU
algorithms, working both with PyOpenCL and PyCuda. Long story short, I
have finally found some time and created a prototype. The preliminary
tutorial can be found at http://tigger.publicfields.net/tutorial.html
and the project itself at https://github.com/Manticore/tigger . The
examples are working and those few tests I have are running. The code
in tigger.core is a mess, but I'm working on it.

At this stage this library is a prototype (or even a proof of concept)
whose fate is not sealed. My current plans are to refactor tigger.core
and tigger.cluda (sorry for stealing the name, Andreas, I can change
it :) over the course of a week or two and start filling it with
actual algorithms. One of the first will be FFT, thus deprecating
pyfft, list of other plans is in TODO.rst. On the other hand, the
library could be made a part of compyte, although I'm not sure it'll
fit its goals.

Anyway, any sort of input is appreciated. Those who want to use the
library for practical applications may want to wait for the next
version, which is supposed to be somewhat stable.
