Having once did a FULL binding to opengl 1.1 for Bigloo, I know how much
work something like this is. So, I will ask serious question:

Because what happened was that I did the bigloo opengl port (my god was
it *sexy*) and then Mr. Serrano changed the FFI a version later causing
my work to crumble and I didn't want to repeat it so it died.
If the FFI is stable enough (felix?) and I occasionally get some help
from the list, I will seriously consider doing a _full_ opengl 2.0 port
for chicken.
And, if you wanted the most bang for your buck, then the SDL_* API should
be completed, a wrapper for libpng should be made, and a wrapper for a
popular .wav file library. Then, all of the pieces are ready for someone
to do game programming in Chicken.
I am fully willing to make my work BSD licensed.
