Yes, more Graphite merges are planned. The VTA merge broke Graphite and we are waiting for Alexandre's recent VTA fixes for Graphite to be updated based on the initial feedback from Sebastian and merged into the trunk. Then the patches from Graphite can be merged. Please keep in mind that Graphite is experimental and not a panacea. If you and your colleagues want Graphite to be able to apply more high-level loop transformations and want it to be more effective with better tuning, please help implement the optimizations. Thanks, David
