One of this years challenges has been to develop a fast paced C# programming course for computer game programming that also covers OpenGL within a .Net context.
In the course of doing this I came across OpenTK - which is, essentially, a wrapper around OpenGL, OpenGL ES ....
OpenTK works not only on Windows platforms, but, also, via the Mono project, on Linux platforms ...
Also, it can be programmed using .Net Visual Basic ...
Might be an interesting project RaspberryPi wise ...
Develop your games on a raspberryPi and then, if you want to, and have the necessary toolkits and IDEs get them to run on a Windows platform ?

Whether native R-Pi development or cross-platform development, it's something I'm interested in so if it does work that would be great.

Has anyone had any luck with running OpenTK on Pi yet?
I've been logging my progress on the MonoGames and Pi thread, and although that last stable OpenTk compiles ok I'm failing to get it running at the moment due to graphic initialisation errors.
