Announcing the new Perl OpenGL project site at
sourceforge.net.  A read-only git access is at

  git://pogl.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/pogl/pogl

I plan on updating the plan going forward but
the immediate goals are:

(1) Continue work with Dmitry Karasik to resolve
    win32 and cygwin build issues for his new
    Prima::OpenGL module at

      http://github.com/dk/Prima-OpenGL

(2) Refactor the perl API bindings to OpenGL
    to use GLEW rather than rolling our own.
    That should allow for an immediate bump
    in OpenGL support to version 4.x.

(3) Refactor the GUI/system inteface in OpenGL
    to be more platform *and* GUI toolkit
    portable.  The current FreeGLUT default is
    very portable but abstracting the needed
    interface should allow it to be provided
    by *any* GUI library.  This is already getting
    started (surprisingly quickly) in #1.

(4) Replace platform OpenGL library detection
    in the Makefile.PL by an Alien::OpenGL or
    such approach.  Maybe Alien::GLEW would be
    better here.

(5) Move from EU::MM to Module::Build to reduce
    platform specific shell and make issues.

If you are interested in participating, please
contact me via email or through the sf.net
project page links at

Thanks!
Chris
