With all the headaches of trying to make Cycles work properly with OpenCL, I 
thought it was interesting that Nvidia has now open sourced with CUDA compiler 
as well as the documentation of the intermediate representation.

In theory, this could mean that CUDA could eventually be ported to non-nvidia 
architectures.
