I'd also like to mark functions in the following extensions this way for
the 6.5.1 release:
GL_EXT_framebuffer_object
GL_EXT_framebuffer_blit
GL_EXT_timer_query
As an initial step towards full deprecation, I'd also like to mark these
ones too. AFAIK, *none* of these have ever been implemented on any
Linux system. Some of them, such as GL_SGIX_fragment_lighting, have
never been implemented on *any* system.
GL_SGIS_texture_filter4
GL_SGIS_texture4D
GL_SGIS_detail_texture
GL_SGIS_sharpen_texture
GL_SGIX_sprite
GL_SGIX_instruments
GL_SGIX_framezoom
GL_SGIX_tag_sample_buffer
GL_SGIX_reference_plane
GL_SGIX_flush_raster
GL_SGIX_list_priority
GL_SGIX_fragment_lighting
GL_PGI_misc_hints
GL_EXT_index_material
GL_EXT_index_func
GL_3DFX_tbuffer
Opinions?
