There is still the series (sent out a couple hours after this message) 
to implement GLX_ARB_create_context.  Since this is required for OpenGL 
3.0, it's pretty important for it to land.  The first patch in the 
series (a bug fix) has been reviewed by Eric, but the rest has only been 
reviewed by crickets.
