EGL Open Source Project Announced!
At the Rational Innovate Conference, IBM announced its intention to establish an open source project on Eclipse.org for EGL! This is big news for everyone involved with EGL as it will open EGL to a completely new group of developers and contributors. Moving to open source will also increase the market for new EGL-related tools and extensions.
Hear all about the project at the EGL Open Project launch call on Tuesday, June 29 at 10 AM (eastern time). Registration is free and easy (just enter your name and e-mail address). Register now
For more information, read the EGL Development Tools Project proposal or visit the EGL Open Source Project Hub.
