Announcing the release to CPAN of the Perl OpenGL-0.59 release supporting
PDL::Graphics::TriD. It has improved robustness, portability, a number of bug
fixes, and (did I mention) it support the new PDL::Graphics::TriD visualization
code.
Enjoy!

| OpenGL-0.59 Release Notes |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
* Now builds out of the box on many linux, PC, and Mac OS X systems
as a result of the move to FreeGLUT/GLUT for GUI operations.
* This is the base release for the upcoming PDL-2.4.5 release with
refactored 3D graphics using the Perl OpenGL module.
* Improved Mac OS X build support, especially with GLUT (not FreeGLUT)
and no X11 installed or server running.
* Improved FreeGLUT binding and support for FreeGLUT vs GLUT.
A number of bugs stomped.
* Improved linux/GLX+X11 build support control although FreeGLUT or
GLUT(on Mac OS X) is preferred.
* Fix MinGW detection logic for ActivePerl configurations
* Code clean up and bugs fixed. Many were discovered as a result of
the reconcilliation with PDL::Graphics::OpenGL requirements.
* A few glp*() functions from PDL were added to POGL and confirmed
consistent API with PDL::Graphics::OpenGL
* glpcOpenWindow() is deprecated as an external, user visible function.
The use of glpOpenWindow() is recommended. It provides the exact
same set of options and control.
* Various documentation updates.
* The test.pl demo program now works more robustly.
