This is a CPAN Developers release of the latest git
for the Perl OpenGL module (a.k.a. POGL).  POGL is
the target of refactoring of the PDL::Graphics::TriD
module to replace PDL::Graphics::OpenGL with POGL
for portability and robustness.

Release highlights:

* This is a developers release, so things are in a state
   of flux.  That said, we're trying to consistenly improve
   but encourage everyone interested in more accessible 3D
   graphics to test and report.  We can't fix things if we
   don't know they're broken...

* Improved support for GLUT rather than *only* FreeGLUT
   builds on Mac OS X.  This should also be true for GLUT
   builds on other OSes but GLUT-only is a big feature of
   the Mac OS X OpenGL environment.

* Refactoring of the internal glpcOpenWindow() routine
   to support the PDL::Graphics::OpenGL::OO object state,
   normalizing the the calling sequence with that from
   PDL, and adding a few PDL only glp* routines that are
   needed to support TriD development.

   POGL calls glpcOpenWindow() through a perl wrapper
   routine glpOpenWindow() which presents all the same
   functionality options as the internal routine.

Enjoy---and please test.

Thanks,
Chris
