The first edition of OpenGL Pipeline, the quarterly newsletter covering all things the OpenGL standards body has “in the pipeline”, covers many important issues: from what the OpenGL ARB has been up to, and plans to do, to updates from various working groups and the intended merger with Khronos.

Topics in this issue include:

• A Message From the ARB Secretary
• A Welcome Message from the Ecosystem Working Group
• Free OpenGL Debug Tools for Academic Users
• Superbuffers Working Group Update
• New Texture Functions with Awkward Names to Avoid Ugly Artifacts
• Improved synchronization across GPUs and CPUs - No more glFinish!
