Hi guys,

I've updated our roadmap taking into account the latest release:
  https://github.com/viennacl/viennacl-dev/wiki/ViennaCL-Roadmap
Feel free to add your topics and post your wishes :-)

The 1.6.1 release is scheduled for the week November 17-21, for which we 
will provide a new fast kernel right when it is presented at the 
Supercomputing conference.

My personal main goal for 1.7.0 is to reduce the use of Boost.uBLAS as 
much as possible and to have a fast, entirely GPU-based AMG 
preconditioner (similar to what is in CUSP). At the same time, I'd like 
to promote shorter release cycles: 1.6.0 was released about a year after 
1.5.0, which keeps quite a number of completed features stuck in the 
pipeline for too long.

Maybe there will be a 1.8.0 release as well, which will still follow the 
current header-only model. However, we may also switch to ViennaCL 2.0.0 
right after the 1.7.x series in order to better target languages other 
than C++ (most notably C and Fortran due to their wide-spread use in HPC).

Any thoughts and input is - as always - welcome :-)

Best regards,
Karli
