It's been a while ago that I looked into it.

I was quite surprised to see Debian pick up my patches. I made them only 
for myself, to develope a Virus-like game on Perl and OpenGL. Eventually 
I decided to publish these patches, largerly to just draw attention to 
the deplorable state that the OpenGL bindings were in at that time.

Unfortunately I haven't made any progress on that project for many a 
year. I'm afraid I'm now too busy to contribute into the work, but I 
wish you best of luck in getting Perl's OpenGL support improved further. 
Sounds like you're already making good progress.

With regards,

Antti L.
