OpenGL 3.2?

BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax OpenGL Programming/OpenGL 3.2?

I'm updating the renderer to GL3 some time next year. Are there any plans to update the OpenGL 2.1 module? There's no reason to choose version 2.1 as an arbitrary stopping point.

You could update to 3 yourself, but I guess your customers would have to change theirs too.

Why? Did OpenGL just end in 2006?

Mark just hasn't implemented the new version of glew to BlitzMax yet.

I haven't seen a great many cards adopt the new specification, but I'm sure BRL is already working on it to some extent.
I am actually more worried about the future of OpenGL: Longs Peak and OpenGL 3.0 controversy @ Wikipedia
