Does Alea GPU support the new GeForce cards

I have a GTX 1060 card, when trying to run the AleaGPU examples I get the following error:

{"Unknown arch: sm61"}

Does AleaGPU not support these cards?

Here is the output from the C++ deviceQuery program found in the CUDA toolkit:

Alea GPU beta-17 is now supporting the new Pascal architecture such as the GTX 1080.

I've run into this problem as well when attempting to use a GTX 1080 card. It appears that the current version of AleaGPU doesn't yet support these new cards.

I emailed their support staff to ask about it and got this response: "We look into it, though currently it is not clear when we will add it. It will be not too long though, but only available in Alea GPU V3 release candidate." That was on July 8th, and I have not seen anything further since then. Hopefully something more will be posted soon.
