apparently a collegue of mine and co-developer on the aparapi project is submiting a paper to a journal this month and is citing me as a co-author. Thing is, I mostly am just a atop-dev on aparapi (project "owner" and developer) and didnt do much for the paper itself. But since the paper is about aparapi and we have worked together on every problem that has come up I guess he felt I deserved it.
Either way, always excited to get my name in another journal article! Doubly so when its about an open-source project I've worked hard on.
@zpartacoos Depends on what you mean... Writing somethign from scratch that behaves like Aparapi for python would be totally doable. But that is a lot of work.
What one could do is use jPython and therefore immediately leverage Aparapi as is... Generally Aparapi should, in theory, work on any JVM language (though we dont test for many of them).
@freemo how hard would it be to make an aparapi version for Python?
