For reasons unknown to me, AMD decided this year to discontinue funding the effort

Presumably they did not want to see Cuda becoming the final de-facto standard that everyone uses. It nearly did at one point a couple of years ago, despite the lack of openness and lack of AMD hardware support.

i heavily rely on CUDA for many things i do on my personal computer. If this establishes itself as a reliable method to use all the funky CUDA stuff on AMD cards, my next card will 100% be AMD.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
