Intel Acceleration Stack Version 2.0 Release Date
Is there any planned release date or rough ETA for when Intel Acceleration Stack Version 2.0 for the PAC S10 board will be released? I would like to evaluate the OpenCL BSP of the PAC S10 board before deciding whether to buy this board, or Stratix 10 boards from third-party vendors who already have working OpenCL BSPs.
Hi,
Intel plans to release Intel Acceleration Stack 2.0 with security feature Production Version in mid-Q4'19. I hope it helps.
Thanks

Hello,
You need to create an account and request access. This release is still controlled.

@FJumaah I do not want to test the non-Production release of the stack. I just would like to know if there is any ETA for when the final public version of the stack will be released. In fact, I am not even interested in the whole stack, just the OpenCL BSP. If Intel cannot even [roughly] determine when they will be able to release a stable OpenCL BSP for their board, that pretty much answers my question.

That is good to hear; however, there is still no public access which changes nothing for me.
