Why was the GL_BGR_EXT pixel format removed?

Well, colour me gobsmacked :o)

Thanks for the pointer, but why isn;t that part of GL11?

ah, never mind - I see why now - all the extensions are kept seperate from the core GL 1.1 code that way.  I suppose that helps to avoid monlithic GL* classes.

That's just a side effect.

The thing with extensions is: they are just that - extensions ;)
