Has anyone already started creating some OpenCL bindings for D?

Is there an implementation already?

Nvidia plans to release a beta soon.

AMD also already has a working internal implementation.

So, in other words, "no".  I don't know about anyone else, but as much as I -love- the idea of OpenCL, I'm not terribly inclined to write bindings for a library that hasn't been released yet.

Well, someone should release the library with public API/source code, first, so that porting to other language is possible.

Well the header files are already available, so some bindings would enable syntactic checking ;)
Have already converted them, they just need some polishing.
