Raspberry Pi 4 has been released:
This new device have OpenGL ES 3 compatible hardware.
The Raspbian system based on Debian buster comes with Mesa OpenGL drivers for the new VideoCore VI GPU. The closed source BroadCom driverstack has been removed for Raspberry Pi 4 and only Freesoftware Mesa driverstack is shipped!
Here JOGL GLWindow capabilities detection output when running on Raspberry Pi 4

Nice nice .. thx for testing.
Great that the Open Source Mesa driver is available - at launch even.

I guess this buries the need for the NEWT RasPi overlay hack then ;-)

Completing my iOS work soon,
even though I might need the HotSpot Arm64 or was it Aarch64(*?)
for the mobile iOS OpenJDK, nobody is taking care of for a while.
But that is another story.
(* The latest Hotspot Arm64 contribution).
