Right now we have to finish linux-armv7l-eabi and android-armv7l-eabi
first. A huge workload regarding java/native-type GlueGen code
for data types incl. structs is now checked in and works well.

Current work in progress (wip) mobile branches are
  - gluegen/wip_mobile
  - jogl/wip_mobile

Next steps are JOGL on
  - linux-armv7l-eabi
    - X11, egl/es[12]

  - android-armv7l-eabi
    - android, NEWT + egl/es[12]

So little chance before SIGGRAPH, but after it, sure.

TODO on macosx to make it a 1st citizen again:
  - cocoa, NEWT + GL3

Of course, you or anybody else can do this themselves,
if willing and able to. In such case I am glad to help.
In such case, pls use git, read our wiki/faq, etc.

Cheers, Sven
