This sounds more like you.
Believe it or not, this subject is an official Dead Horse. Please stop
beating it, you'll only get a bloody mess.

First, p.o-t is the wrong forum.
Second, posts here expire.

No, you didn't even ask a question. You made a statement: "I have just
learned about it and I think this could be a great improvement for POV-ray"
This is something which, by your own words, you have just heard about.
You then quoted a whole bunch of marketing blurbs about it.
Trust me. We have not just heard about it, but have been looking at the
idea for more than *10 years* now. I haven't specifically looked at
OpenCL, but I have CUDA, and the underlying hardware hasn't changed
enough yet to overcome the inherent limitations in the system.

Then why is it so hard for you to accept that this isn't a good idea at
this time?
If you really want to help make POV-Ray better, the source code is
available. Please, dig in! Start reading the p.p group, and look at
some of the outstanding bugs! That would surely be appreciated more
than your parroting some random marketing blurbs.
