Just two quick questions

1. Is Octane ver 3 just going to be OpenCl only? Or are there going to be 2 versions like an OpenCl version and a CUDA version? I have an Nvidia card at the moment but thinking of switching to AMD which only has OpenCl support and no CUDA.

2. Is the likely release of Octane 3 due sometime within the next 6 months? I am not asking for an explicit date just a very vague timeframe.

It will be CUDA and OpenCL, since OpenCL is neglected by NVIDIA and we can't leave out NVIDIA for obvious reasons.

The first releases may come without OpenCL support, since there have been a few delays in the development, but we still hope to have it ready in the next 6 months. We will see.
