+ <p>Experimental support for the <b>new isl code generator</b>
+ was committed. The code generator can be parameterized on a fine-grained
+ level. It gives direct control for example over unrolling, the amount of
+ control overhead and the code size. It can also be used to
+ create loops to handle border conditions or to perform full-partial tile
+ separation.<br />
+ We also relicensed isl under the <b>MIT license</b>. This means, with the
+ exception of GMP, there is no GPL licensed software used in Polly. The
+ use of GMP is limited to a well defined interface. Replacing it with
+ a BSD licensed replacement is a tractable engineering project we would
+ be very interested in. For more information about isl see the <a
+ href="http://www.kotnet.org/~skimo/isl/manual.pdf">isl manual</a>.

+ <p> Polly can now be directly linked to the <a
+href="http://pluto-compiler.sourceforge.net/">Pluto optimizer</a>. We were
+already able to perform Pluto-like optimizations with Polly, as a similer
+algorithm was added to isl half a year ago. However, being able to directly
+compare with the original implementation will not only bring in competition in
+the optimizer field. It will also allow new experiments with a cutting edge
+research tool.<br \>
+ This support was on of the outcomes of the 1-day Polly workshop and the
+ following week of joint work at IISC Bangalore and in cooperation with
+ AMD India.
