Since the S.I. is available under an open source license, are there any other licensing requirements for hardware developers?
Hardware developers that wish to use the OpenGL trademark and logo in their advertising and that want to claim conformance to the OpenGL specification would need an additional license. If the hardware developer is building an open source implementation of the OpenGL API for an open source platform (Linux®, FreeBSD), an additional license is available free of charge. Send e-mail to arb-secretary ‘at’ sgi.com for information. For implementations that either are not open source or are not for open source platforms, a licensing fee is involved. For licenses for Windows OS-based platforms, a developer would need to work with Microsoft. For all other platforms, SGI is the point of contact.
