Hi Ilya,
there is interest, but not the necessary expertise among the main
developers. It would be good to have the option, though, in case any
developer with the skills were to come onboard.

It does sounds interesting, but on your site
(<
http://www.cilk.com/home/get-cilk>) I read that "If you are building
open source software and sharing your derivative works with the
community, the CAPL operates like the GPL." We'd have a problem with
that, as the QuantLib license is a modified BSD license and it's not
compatible with the GPL. Did you happen to have this problem with other
projects? Did you solve it, and if so, how?
Thanks,
Luigi
