Hi everybody!

I am still around and try to get more active. Like last year, I am going to FOSDEM this weekend.

I am a speaker in the LLVM toolchain devroom @ FOSDEM'18. My talk is about DCompute which I consider to be an awesome feature. Of course all credits go to Nicholas Wilson!

Read the announcement at https://fosdem.org/2018/schedule/event/heterogenousd/.

FOSDEM is a two-day event organised by volunteers to promote the widespread use of open source software.

Taking place in the beautiful city of Brussels (Belgium), FOSDEM is widely recognised as "the best open source conference in Europe".

FOSDEM 2018 will take place at ULB Campus Solbosch on Saturday 3 and Sunday 4 February 2018. Read more about the event at https://fosdem.org/2018/.

Regards,
Kai

Thanks!

It's a pity I can't make it at short notice, since I'm in London at the moment.
If you could do me a favour and convince the LLVM folks they need a SPIR-V backend that'd be great ;) (I plan to spearhead it at IWOCL just after DConf but a prod^H^H^H^H gentle reminder won't go astray).

I look forward to watching the recording.

All the best
Nic

I got the response that someone is working on a SPIR-V backend with the goal to integrate it in official LLVM. It might be worth to ask on the LLVM dev list for a contact.

Ya he's working for Collabora, I've spoken with him before. It was more about prodding the LLVM side. Hopefully we should have an proper SPIR-V backend in motion two weeks after DConf.
