Well good version of OpenGl 5.0 would be very welcome(even without complete rewrite), but history shows that ARB(Architectural Review Board) likes to shoot itself in foot[1]. Design by committee usually takes a lot of time, so rewrite would probably take forever given number of legacy OpenGL Cad applications. Small nitpick: OpenGL would be catching up with Direct3d not with DirectX(which includes parts like input or sound that AFAIK are out of scope for OpenGL) [1]http://programmers.stackexchange.com/questions/60544/why-do-game-developers-prefer-windows http://programmers.stackexchange.com/questions/60544/why-do-... edit: found HN discussion about this link: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2711231 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2711231
