Alex,

Just to clarify my point, it may not be clear in my previous email. We
currently have a prototype implementation in https://github.com/clang-omp
that successfully uses the interface as described in the document. Of
course, we should be flexible in adapting the interface and compiler to
future changes in the OpenMP specification. But as the current spec, this
design has shown to work well for several platforms. So I believe, this is
a great starting point to get offloading working in clang and I am
committed to actively work on this with everyone to make that happen.

Thanks!
Samuel
