3D News, GL, DirectX SGI and the Khronos Group published a new license for OpenGL. "The license, which now mirrors the free X11 license used by X.Org, further opens previously released SGI graphics software that has set the industry standard for visualization software and has proven essential to GNU/Linux and a host of applications." New new license is shorter than the the FreeB license in version 1.1, which wasn't an Open Source license.

Wrong. Just go to the ATI and NVidia developer portals and look for the amount of DirectX and OpenGL provided samples. You will see that DirectX wins.

Many NVidia products for developers still lack support for GLSL, just to give an example.
