So that was the (final) spark behind libepoxy :)

Pardon my ignorance but I have considered libepoxy as a drop-in replacement of
glew and alike, with much more static nature than waffle.

I find it interesting and I believe that it's _the_ answer for 99% of the
cases out there. For the remaining one percent (piglit + ???) we need
something a bit more flexible.

Not aiming at it atm, but just curious - which one would you consider as the
better option:
 - Convert waffle to use libepoxy, or
 - clone the current implementation into waffle and work from there ?


Cheers,

P.S. Haven't looked at all at the license implications + IANAL :)
