OpenGL timeframe?

hi, I’m sure this has been answered before but I’ve noticed that people actively involved in OpenGL2 development frequently post here, so my question is:

when do you expect a beta release, and when do you expect a useable release?

I ask this because DX9 beta releases in a month and is due to arrive in usable form early this summer.

AFAIK, there still are discussions over OGL2.0 specifications. Once the specifications are done, it will take some time to see a sample reference implementation. A matter of months IMHO.

Barthold: any comment/scoop ?
