The OpenGL 4.1 specification has been defined by the OpenGL ARB (Architecture Review Board) working group at Khronos, and includes the GLSL 4.10 update to the OpenGL Shading language and is accompanied by a number of extensions introducing cutting-edge functionality to the OpenGL standard.

From SIGGRAPH 2008, one of the premiere computers graphics conferences, the Khronos Group has announced the release of the OpenGL 3.0 API specification and the GLSL 1.30 shading language specification. This is the first major update to this cross-platform 3D programming API since the OpenGL 2.1 release two years ago.

The Khronos Group today released the final WebGL 1.0 specification to enable hardware-accelerated 3D graphics in HTML5 Web browsers without the need for plug-ins. WebGL defines a JavaScript binding to OpenGL ES 2.0 to allow rich 3D graphics within a browser on any platform supporting the industry-standard OpenGL or OpenGL ES graphics APIs.

The Khronos Group announced version 1.1 of OpenCL, the multiprocessor programming standard. OpenCL 1.1 features a variety of enhancements, the one that really caught my eye was Improved OpenGL interoperability through efficient sharing of images and buffers by linking OpenCL event objects to OpenGL fence sync object. That'll come in handy.

The Khronos Group has announced that OpenGL 4.0, the specification for the open 2D and 3D graphics API, is now available

The Khronos Group has released a new mile stone version of the OpenGL API: version 3.0, codename Long Peaks. While this is really good news, Khronos is still unable to communicate with the community.

The Khronos Group announced the finalized specs for OpenGL 4.1 and unsurprisingly, the focus was primarily on improving graphical performance on mobile devices. OpenGL 4.1 is completely cross compatible with OpenCL, the mobile 3D graphics API and features new tools that allow for the easy porting of code from one platform to another.

The Khronos Group announced the release of the OpenGL 3.2 specification this morning via a press release.

Khronos just released the newest version of OpenGL: 4.0. This big step was not expected and took developers and users as a surprise. According to Khronos, Nvidia and AMD will quickly pick it up within their proprietary graphic drivers.
