==================BEGIN FORWARDED MESSAGE==================
This from the IBM developer:
Timur,
The source code for a sample hardware accelerated driver for OpenGL 1.1
for
OS/2 was delivered from the RS/6000 development team to our dept in
December,
just prior to the holidays (a couple of months later than originally
scheduled). We are working on it now. It isn't quite ready for prime
time,
with some bugs that need to be fixed, and lacking documentation. I'm
coming up
to speed with the code, and have started to debug and fix. We are getting
the
code into CMVC and setting up a build environment from which we can
release and
service the code. Finally, when we have some documentation to guide
adapting
the sample to different hardware, we will make a DDK package available to
IHVs. It's a lot of code!
We will only be providing the OpenGL DDK to IHVs that have an OpenGL
source
license from SGI. All of the IHVs with 3D hardware are SGI licensees, but
we
can't make the DDK available with public, on-line OS/2 DDK.
It will be a couple of months yet before I'd be comfortable making the DDK
available, but if an IHV was eager to get an early look without docs (i.e.
an
alpha release), that might be possible even now. Unfortunately, no IHV
has
been beating at the door to support OS/2. I'm hoping that OS/2 mgmt
doesn't
pull the plug first. Although there are no indications that that will
happen,
I'm afraid its always a possibility given the current environment.
IHV contact for the OpenGL DDK is Paul Wolfe, (512) 823-1627.
