I've not been involved in this, Jon Leech and others at SGI are working
with others in the industry to spec all this stuff. I just wanted to
mention it so that everyone here is aware that this isn't quite ready
yet despite there being accelerated OpenGL implementations available. It
will be in place soon though.
Cheers,Angus.

"One of the best-known folk theorems of software engineering is that
60% to 75% of conventional software projects are either never
completed or rejected by their intended users. If that range is
anywhere near true (and I've never met a manager of any experience
who disputes it) then more projects than not are being aimed at goals
which are either (a) not realistically attainable, or (b) just plain
wrong."
