the future ?

Quoting: "In an ideal world, the Clyther developers would move the core such that it was built on top of PyOpenCL, so we wouldn't have to choose, and to avoid duplication of labor. I doubt that will ever happen, though."

Clyther looks like the most straightforward Python/OpenCL option, despite not being very complete, it is already very powerful and useful. However, it hasn't been updated in quite a while apparently. Given the ideas and features discussed on the website, I was wondering if it might be a feasible option to implement Clyther either on top of PyOpenCL or possibly llvm/llvmpy, llvm is already being used by AMD/NVIDIA to compile OpenCL and the tool chain is fully exposed, so that Python bytecode could be transparently processed and turned into corresponding CL kernels.

When I created CLyther, PyOpenCL was in it's infancy so I created my own OpenCL Python bindings https://github.com/srossross/oclpb which are separate from the CLyther Language translator. It should be feasible to remove the dependency on oclpb and replace it with PyOpenCL
