|                  OpenGL-0.6703
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+

General Notes:

 * Minor update to tolerate absence of several extensions removed
   in Mesa 9.2.0.  Thanks to Colin Watson for reporting and fixing
   the problem.

|                  OpenGL-0.6702
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+

General Notes:

 * This release fixes some minor build issures for Strawberry Perl 32bit
   where the wrong FreeGLUT library would be linked in---this failed at
   runtime during the 'perl Makefile.PL' step.

Highlights:

  * Clean up INSTALL, README, and bring more up-to-date.

  * Put util/strawberry.bat under git configuration management.

  * glutCloseFunc() feature has been disabled.  A warning is given
    the first time the close handler is called.

  * Strawberry perl builds are now detected and the build configuration
    is corrected.  This should allow for automated builds.



+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|                  OpenGL-0.6701
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+

General Notes:

 * This is a work-around release to work around a problem with
   segfaults during the glutCloseFunc() processing.  Until a
   real fix is found, the feature has been disabled.

Highlights:

  * glutCloseFunc() feature has been disabled.  A warning is given
    the first time the close handler is called.

  * Strawberry perl builds are now detected and the build configuration
    is corrected.  This should allow for automated builds.

|                  OpenGL-0.67
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+

General Notes:

 * This is a quick bugfix release to work around a build
   problem for Debian sid on AMD platforms.

Highlights:

  * Comment out failing tests in t/10_opengl_array.t.  Ideally,
    we could replace this implementation with something using
    pdls instead.

  * Some GLUT cleanup for POGL

  * Remove GL_TYPE_RGBA_FLOAT_ATI support.  The sid debian build
    for AMD has problems with this.

  * New example/glxgears.pl ported by Brian Medley (thanks!)

  * Removed OS/2 support code (no longer supported)

  * Various other fixes (see GIT_CHANGES)



+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|                  OpenGL-0.66
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+

General Notes:

 * This test adds skips for some tests from OpenGL::RPN
   under current development avoiding FAILs in automated
   builds due to known problems.

 * It is compatible with the Prima GUI toolkit and the
   Prima::OpenGL module.



+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|                  OpenGL-0.65
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+

General Notes:

 * This is a point release for the Perl OpenGL module (POGL)
   with new features, bugs fixed and improved documentation.
 
 * OS/2 is no longer supported by POGL directly.


Highlights:

  * Paul Seamons contributed full tessellation support,
    documentation for OpenGL::Tessellation, and a *major* set
    of fixes and POD for the existing OpenGL::Array module.

  * The cygwin build of POGL now supports either the native
    win32 platform drivers or the X11/GLX bindings (default).
    Use interface=w32api or interface=wgl as args to the
    perl Makefile.PL to select.  NOTE: you have to pick one
    or the other.  If you change, any dependencies such as
    PDL::Graphics::TriD will need to be recompiled.

  * The included FreeGLUT DLL has been upgraded to 2.6.0
    thanks to Rob/sisyphus.

  * Prima::OpenGL has been released by Dmitry Karasik which
    adds support for Perl OpenGL to his cross-platform GUI
    toolkit in addition to bug fixes and code cleanup.
    Thanks, Dmitry!  See http://search.cpan.org/~karasik/Prima-1.30/
    for details.

|                  OpenGL-0.64_004
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+

General Notes:

 * This is a CPAN developers release for the OpenGL module.

   - It is a snapshot of the current git development tree
     and everything may not work correctly or have complete
     documentation.

   - These release notes may not be fully complete.  Please
     see the git log for full details.

   - All tests may not pass, especially ones corresponding
     to issues in KNOWN_PROBLEMS.

   - Manual build/install is recommended although the
     cpan shell may be used by specifying the distribution
     path rather than just the module name, e.g.:

     cpan> get  CHM/OpenGL-0.64_004.tar.gz
     cpan> make CHM/OpenGL-0.64_004.tar.gz
     cpan> test CHM/OpenGL-0.64_004.tar.gz
     cpan> look CHM/OpenGL-0.64_004.tar.gz

  Highlights:

  * Add META.yml information to the build process

  * Fix bug in test.pl

  * First POGL code to be placed on new sf.net site.



+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|                  OpenGL-0.64_003
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+

  This is a CPAN developers release for the Perl OpenGL module with
  some minor fixes to improve buildability and updates and bug
  fixes to check.

  Highlights:

  * Fix interface=w32api to work for cygwin again.  Requires a
    current cygwin install---greater than 1.7.x.

  * Minor cleanup in Makefile.PL and documentation/readme updates
    reflecting the newly set up Perl OpenGL project at sf.net:

      http://sourceforge.net/projects/pogl/



+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|                  OpenGL-0.64_002
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+

  This is a CPAN developers release for the Perl OpenGL module with
  some minor fixes to improve buildability and updates and bug
  fixes to check.

  Highlights:

  * win32 freeglut.dll has been updated to 2.6.0, the
    current stable release.

  * Many fixes to OpenGL::Array and new tests for the
    functionality.  Still in progress but more complete
    and correct nonetheless.

  Please see the GIT_CHANGES file for more details.  Thanks.

|                  OpenGL-0.64_001
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+

  This is a point release for the Perl OpenGL module with
  some minor fixes to improve buildability.

  Highlights:

  * Newly revised GLU tesselation support provided
    by Paul Seamons.  See examples/tesselation.pl
    if you wish to test drive the functionality.
