I know this is an older thread.  But it is still very pertinent and bears a remark.  Those of us that are trying to learn openGL and JOGL rely on sample code and tutorials to learn how to develop our own code.  Therefore it is EXTREMELY important that we have access to working code and tutorials that work in order to use your tools.  Open source or not it becomes just as important that you provide working examples.

I have downloaded and gone through several tutorials now just to find they are full of syntax errors or won't load or any number of problems.  And in my searches through various forums all I see is "We don't support that version any more."  Fine, then provide us with some examples for the current versions of the JOGAMP apis that DO work.

It does no good for you to forge on with new interfaces, new capabilities and all sorts of features if we have no instructions on how to use them.  And most developers DO NOT HAVE THE TIME to go through the code line by line and try to figure out how the code works!!

Is there somewhere that we can go that has current, working examples of using JOGL in an actual windows environment?
