I'm not sure what you're asking. Should we use OpenGL? Definitely. In fact, we don't have much choice (at least if we want fast graphics); OpenGL is the only choice for hardware-accelerated 3D graphics under Linux/Unix. (All of pyglet, geomview, java3d, VTK depend on OpenGL, at least under Linux.) Should we use OpenGL directly? OpenGL is another big thing to learn; I think most Sage developers might be happier with a simpler, scene- graph based graphics interface. On the other hand, we don't need all Sage developers to be comfortable working on all parts of the code; we just need "enough" developers to develop the graphics libraries. Do I like OpenGL? Yes, I do.
