OpenTK 0.9.1 Alpha Release notes
IMPORTANT: This release is intended for testing and experimentation only. Use at your own risk!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
0.9.1 improves on the OpenAL bindings included in 0.9.0, with support for
environmental extensions (EFX, EAX), CLS-compliance and the AudioContext class.
Resolution changes are supported at last, and code has been internally
reorganized to help future ports to different platforms.
Till next time!
- Stephen A.

Porting notes
#################################################################################

# Updating to Mono 1.2.6 is strongly recommended #

#################################################################################
0.9.0 contains a few breaking changes, compared to 0.3.13 and previous releases.
These include:
1) Version12-Version21 enums no longer exist. This affects many OpenGL functions,
including VBO- and GLSL-related ones. The necessary enum is shown in the function
signature. In the unlikely case that a token is missing from the new enums,
please report a bug at http://www.opentk.com/forum/1
2) Updates to internal GLControl and GLContext interfaces may have side-effects.
Please report anything strange you encounter at http://www.opentk.com/forum/1
