Don't know.  I joined in recently....

yep.  Not even main branch.

That's exactly how it works actually....
Basically whole paragui runs inside of opengl context, any 'surfaces'
point to opengl textures.  Still sorting things out and making things
work, but it's basically operational.

I set it up to work with video device drivers and one of the replacement
drivers is the opengl one.  The default driver is the SDL native one
that's in the main trunk.

G'day, eh? :)
