Q: Will sgminer support FPGAs or ASICs? |

A: No. sgminer will only support GPUs. It is bad software design |

Q: Will there be Keccak/SHA-3 support? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A: No, for the same reason as above. There is also no reason why this |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
particular piece of software should support all possible algorithms. |

|
|
|
|
|
|
SHA-3 cryptocurrency developers are better off writing independent |
|
|
|

implementations. This also has the side-benefits of eliminating codebase |

monopoly, and lower maintanance for everybody. |
