Please, tell us all about how Khronos hurt Apple with free software that Apple had every opportunity to influence. Point to the boo-boo that justifies making things worse for everyone.

    My dear Apple has zero influence on Windows, Linux and Android.

    Where are those great OpenCL implementations from Intel, AMD and Google?

    I can imagine a scenario: Apple donates openCL, then later suggests some changes for the next version. Khronos delays or pushes back and now openCL is stuck from Apple's perspective and they can't do anything about it.

I really want them to get it together with OpenCL 3 and especially Vulkan interop but I’m not really holding out hope for it.

    OpenCL 3 is OpenCL 1, no one cares, Intel has made extensions on too for DPC++, AMD is pushing Romc or whatever else they think of.

    Still not showing that they care.

      I don't know why anyone would try to care when Apple announced they were pivoting away from OpenCL half a decade ago. The value prop of a cross-platform GPGPU API died the moment that Apple gave up, and OpenGL's treatment reflects what happens once Apple abandons an open standard.
