For BlendLuxCore devs: I have created a new operator "LuxCore Debug Restart" which restarts Blender and restores the session. Python scripts are loaded fresh from disk.
In my settings I have assigned it to the "F5" key. Makes development a lot more fun.
(Note: I have tried to get Blender's "reload scripts" to work with BlendLuxCore first, but couldn't get anywhere)

I have added some more nodes to the cycles node reader.
The following scene by Wig42 is now almost completely readable (only math nodes missing for this scene):

No actual visible node trees are modified, and you can enable/disable the usage of the Cycles nodes for each material at any time.
I have recorded some demo videos about it:

Note that it's very early work in progress and only very few nodes (around 5 or so) are supported right now.
There's a lot of work to be done still on this topic.
Wow! This is going to be great! Great job B.Y.O.B.!

If anybody ever should ask again what advatages BlendLuxCore has versus Cycles the answer is load a Cycles scene switch to LuxCore and render the scene. Thanks to B.Y.O.B‘s efforts everyone can convince itself instantly.

I implemented support for MixRGB and Math nodes. However not all of their operations are available in LuxCore yet.

Great. Any link for testing the build?

It's not in a state yet where it would make sense to give it to end-users.
You can test it of course as it's open source, but you will have to
- compile the blender2.8 branch of LuxCore against python3.7 instead of 3.5
- and use the refactor/new_blender2.80 branch of BlendLuxCore.
At the moment this can be seen as the hurdle you have to take that qualifies you for trying unfinished pre-alpha code ;)
I'll try to get the addon into a testable state in the next weeks.
