no it does not. but it is very solid at converting parallelism specified by the programmer into a GPU program.

Hello, I am thinking maybe I will use the Apache license...

I would be interested in publishing this under different licenses, such as Apache.

OpenCL does not support recursive methods the last time I checked. If it does, it is very simple to switch in OpenCL.

Actually, rootbeer does not find parallelism automatically. You must encode parallelism into your program. But it does get good speedups.
