Hi Chris, I am interested in helping out! Any bugs I can tackle I will take. I am also hoping to look at using some of the P5NCI optimizations chromatic was talking about but I will wait for a while and learn the code base so far.

We have several ppl on that list that are interested in this project Kartik On Sun, 2011-07-03 at 14:25 -0400, chm wrote: > Announcing the new Perl OpenGL project site at > sourceforge.net.
