Just wanted to say that "glNext" is here and it's name is Vulkan

and SPIR-V and basically all the pdf is screaming to me that Go could
finally shine on graphical applications. Even better, if targeting SPIR-V
is possible, Go could be used as shader language!

Am I the only one excited?

    I'm just happy they didn't call it LibreGL. Here's the paper on SPIR-V if
    you want to get started :)

    I am excited too, and looking forward to playing with it and adding
    bindings to https://github.com/go-gl org.

    My main concern right now is the lack of mention about web; I was hoping
    Vulkan would unify desktop + mobile + web, not just the first two.

    Humm can this also be a step towards channels on GPU :)

    Count me on.

    If go compiler is able to target SPIR-V, then this can open the road for
    high efficient pure Go graphics library.
