Possibly you already know about it. But SGI and the Khronos Group updated the FreB license for OpenGL: http://www.sgi.com/company_info/newsroom/press_releases/2008/september/opengl.html
The license 1.1 was long and not OpenSource: http://oss.sgi.com/projects/FreeB/ the new license 2.0 is the same like the X11-license by X.org. And that is the same license, like mesa3d use.
