- pjmlp 7y agoIt is easy to sort out, Khronos just needs to accept that a large majority of developers want productive SDKs, not raw specifications based on C, and with luck some C++ as well. I also don't see you complain that so far the only mature SYCL SDK is available from Codeplay, thus making it a single vendor "standard". At least until Intel (One API) and others actually come one with their SYCL extensions, because naturally nothing that Khronos does can be without extensions and its multiple execution paths.
