Has anyone already started creating some OpenCL bindings for D?

Is there an implementation already?

Nvidia plans to release a beta soon. http://www.geeks3d.com/?p=2582 AMD also already has a working internal implementation. http://fireuser.com/blog/amd_opencl_parallel_computing_demo_from_siggraph_asia_2008/

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. -- Daniel

What's so bad about it?

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.
