About WebCL
WebCL is an in-progress effort by Khronos (http://www.khronos.org) to specify a JavaScript/DOM API similar to OpenCL, which is an API for high-performance computing hardware, such as GPGPUs. WebCL should be to OpenCL what WebGL is to OpenGL.
The latest WebCL Working Draft is available here:
https://cvs.khronos.org/svn/repos/registry/trunk/public/webcl/spec/latest/index.html
There is a private and a public WebCL mailing list at Khronos. The public list is:

Implementations for Gecko
There is a prototype implementation developed by Nokia Research available at http://hg.mozilla.org/projects/webcl/. The prototype does not yet include a kernel validator.
See http://webcl.nokiaresearch.com for more information on the Nokia WebCL project.
