Jason,
Thank you for taking ownership of HOpenGL!
I would like to make a formal request for there to be *some* way to get
access to either
Graphics.Rendering.OpenGL.Raw.Core31.TypesInternal
or that
Graphics.Rendering.OpenGL.Raw.Core31.Types
re-export the newtype wrappers it places around CDouble and CFloat.
As things stand the only way to work with them is to pointlessly round-trip
through rational or pray that GHC is smart enough to automatically convert
once it sees through the newtype, which it isn't, potentially costing me
orders of magnitude of performance in tight loops in exchange for
implementation freedom the current OpenGL bindings do not use on any
platform.

Several months ago I announced my intent to take over maintainership of the Haskell OpenGL bindings and associated packages. Today I have pushed new minor revisions to hackage.
I have updated the following packages: * OpenGL * OpenGLRaw * GLURaw * GLUT
The change log is very minor for each of these. For my first release as the new maintainer I opted to be very conservative about changes. Consider this a bug fix release with updated metadata.
Please report bugs to either the Haskell OpenGL mailing list or the appropriate issue tracker on the github page: http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/hopengl https://github.com/haskell-opengl
I would like to give a big thank you to the following individuals: Sven Panne Lars Corbjin Dylan Simon Alexey Karakulov Balazs Komuves
If you contributed to this release by giving advice, filing a bug report, sending a patch, or in some other way, and I've not listed your name then I apologize for the omission.
Going forward I could use help with testing, development, and documentation so if you're interested in OpenGL and Haskell let me know and also keep your eyes out for calls for volunteers.
Thank you! Jason
