Hello: The future of programming. OpenACC allow developers to leverage the parallel acceleration, with only minor modifications to your existing code (or new)for GPUs. Greetings.

At bloody last.

They are (or seem to be) including parallel FORTRAN as a contributor language!
It as so vastly superior to enormously parallel vast math tasks when compared to the syntactically ambiguous C or C++ or CUDA, than micro-photo-lithography is superior to a stone chisel.

Those mathematicians who have programmed (say) a Cray in parallel FORTRAN for some safety-critical task can attest to the veracity of this assertion.
Those who have not should reserve comment, positive or negative.
