Re: [Glsdk-devel] the future of GLSDK

[Branan R. <br...@gm...>]

The GLX extension for GL3 was finally released, so I'm going to try
and work with the GLFW people to get GL3 on Linux working. Once that's
all set, I'll try to get shapelib finished (I've been waiting for GL3
support so I could make sure my rendering code in shapelib is GL3
compatible).

Once that's all set, and I get a CMake template for example code in
place, we can start soliciting example code from the community.

Tutorials will need more cohesion than examples, so developing a plan
for those needs to be high on the priority list at this point. With
the drop of fixed functionality, lots of stuff needs to be explained
before even a simple program can be run, making tutorial cohesion even
more important.
