## Overview
The [*OpenGL™ for Java™ (GL4Java)*](https://jausoft.com/gl4java/docs/) is an OpenGL™ binding for the Java™ programming language.
-*GL4Java* was developed [from March 1997](https://jausoft.com/gl4java/docs/overview/history.html)
+*GL4Java* was developed by Sven Gothel [from March 1997](https://jausoft.com/gl4java/docs/overview/history.html)
until [March 2003](https://jogamp.org/cgit/gl4java.git/log/).
-Its many concepts were reused in the subsequently launched [JOGL project](https://jogamp.org/jogl/www/),
-initially [lead by Sun Microsystems](https://jogamp.org/cgit/gl4java.git/about/#gluegen-joal-and-jogl-at-sun-microsystems) and later run by [myself and the JogAmp community](https://jogamp.org/),
-rendering *GL4Java* effectively *JOGL's* predecessor.
