Reading that article, I saw that you want to implement a DirectX backend.  Would be nice to use HLSL as opposed to GLSL.  I feel it's a much more powerful shading language that I've yet to see really applied to generative art type pieces.

Love 'em or hate 'em, MS does know how to make an IDE, and VC++ being the most popular C++ environment in the world made that an easy choice. However if someone would like to work on adding Code::Blocks support, we would absolutely be open to it.

When we do add DX support, we definitely intend to include HLSL support. Cinder is designed so no APIs are baked in to places they shouldn't be, so adding this should be possible without modifying much existing Cinder code. The one area I am aware of that breaks this rule (and there may be others I am overlooking) is qtime::MovieGl, which needs to be moved to a separate module eventually. We will also add qtime::MovieDx since QuickTime on Windows actually supports a hardware accelerated D3D path, surprisingly enough. If someone has extensive DX experience and would be up for undertaking this earlier, absolutely let us know.

I know it's open sourced on github so virtually anything is possible, but do you have a roadmap of stuff you'd like or plan to implement? Long term, mid term, and short term would be great to see the direction you guys continue to go.

Congratulations on the release!

What kind of things would you like to see on the roadmap?

Maybe it is time to start to make a kind of roadmap. I am not talking about something very official, maybe just a simple list could work. For example,  essential points for me may be

At least this is will give us an idea about what people are working on, what will be made and where people can help. 

What do you think?
