    It is no surprise, AMD told us that the AMDGPU would lead to more developers from other departments would contribute to the common parts of the driver.
    I think this is good since we might see more things being shared over time and more expertise from the catalyst team.

      After all, Intel has dozens of open-source Linux driver developers.
      After all, Intel is dozens times it's worth/size.

      Seriously, it's like comparing a indie dev to to valve!

        You should have also mentioned at least Matt Arsenault (llvm backend) and Odded Gabay (amdkfd driver).

          Any numbers on the Dev:Linux user of hardware ratio of AMD/Intel. I know what you are saying is true just wondering the scale.

            I'm not at all sure what modern numbers are, but back in 07 AMD had over 30% share for linux users. It used to be bigger than the overall market share.

                Lets be fair now. Dota 2 for example is huge and in constant development.

                  AMD is like these indie devs who release Early Access games wich stay in alpha state forever
