Otis schrijft: "Om aan al het ge-urineer over OpenGL en Win2K een eind te maken heeft Microsoft zelf een FAQ gepost op OpenGL.org. Een Must Read(tm) voor allen die denken of gedacht hebben daarover te moeten meezeveren op de verschillende reactielijsten alhier ":
I would like to provide the OpenGL community with the following FAQ containing the official Microsoft position on its support of OpenGL in Windows 2000. I apologize for any delay and subsequent worry caused as we got this information together.Its unfortunate that internal mails like mine get forwarded and see air-time out of context and cause alarm and I apologize for that. This statement regarding our intentions with respect to Windows 2000 and OpenGL makes crystal clear my email was a personal lament over general lack of drivers for W2K and not policy. As far as my point about our directions and where we are placing our resources - thats been no secret for years. My personal technical opinions in internal debates about simplifying the driver model mess are just that. This shouldn't have been news but out of context it might appear to be.
