Hello,
Yes, there's nothing related to the API that is blocking us. It seemed
very flexible and easy to use. The bugs that I've spotted are probably
internal to AMD driver.
I'd say that the Weston patches are converging nicely, we just need time
to get them fully reviewed. We had a few preparation MR's to land
before !1702, and now there's only one left (!1617).
Thanks,
Leandro
