Development Status
The first public release of Visualization Library was on May 7, 2007. Visualization Library is currently at its second stable release, VL 2011.05.1140, which follows the first one, VL 2009.07.640. While the design remained essentially the same the latest stable release differs from its predecessor mainly for: supporting OpenGL 3 and 4 and in particular tessellation shaders, double precision uniform variables, new texture formats such as multisample textures and texture objects, extensive framebuffer object support and a better tuning for applications that make heavy use of GLSL, among many other enhancements.

Famous quotes containing the words development and/or status:
“The work of adult life is not easy. As in childhood, each step presents not only new tasks of development but requires a letting go of the techniques that worked before. With each passage some magic must be given up, some cherished illusion of safety and comfortably familiar sense of self must be cast off, to allow for the greater expansion of our distinctiveness.”
—Gail Sheehy (20th century)
“The influx of women into paid work and her increased power raise a woman’s aspirations and hopes for equal treatment at home. Her lower wage and status at work and the threat of divorce reduce what she presses for and actually expects.”
—Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
