The OpenGL ARB working group just released an update on its plans on
OpenGL 3 (see opengl.org).

They intent to make S3TC texture compression part of OpenGL 3.

S3TC is patented, the patent expires in 2017.

I suppose this would mean that there will be no free OpenGL
implementation before 2017. The free software community would have to
create it's own 3D API to replace OpenGL.
