Very cool, and I definitely applaud Intel for supporting open source here. A couple questions...

* is the 3D stuff available from git somewhere? The download filename includes "-git-", but the checkout instructions reference cvs.

* is anyone working on a more dynamic GLSL compilation system? i.e. a "JIT", in compiler technology terms.

Thanks,

Jeff
