Stub This article has been rated as stub-Class on the assessment scale.

Given that Snow Leopard was only officially announced today, and OpenCL as part of it, we are likely to have more detail on the API in the coming days. At this point in time this entry is only suitable as a stub. I have added a reference to an Apple press release, but it is very light on substance in this regards. --AJ Mas (talk) 02:55, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

I ref'd some other stuff, but I'm not sure if it satisfies replacing {{unreferenced}} with {{stub}}. P.S. Gotta love how Apple PR is abusing "Open" and "standard" in the passive voice "has been proposed as an open standard" b.s. meaningless PR speak, but I don't know how to [roll eyes] when quoting a press release. -- Skierpage (talk) 05:59, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for fixing this page up! It is all valid information that's been collected; the Open-ness will be revealed or Apple will be mocked. Just "has been proposed as an open standard" doesn't cut it -- we need to find out to which standards body this language has been submitted for proposed adoption. --Ncr100 (talk) 06:36, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

There is a discussion thread at reddit. It doesn't provide anything concrete, hence the inclusion in the discussion page, rather that the article. If the thread is anything to go by it would seem that the details are still being obscured by an NDA --AJ Mas (talk) 02:05, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
