     I would like to ask, which way I should choose - SourceForge,
   Guile CVS repository or something else?  Which one you prefer
   for development for Guile language bindings?

state of the art for wrapping libraries w/ guile bindings still
requires a lot of manual work, so maintaining this project per se
does not yield as widely useful results as maintaining this project
as a test case for general wrapping tools.  from that point of
view, i would suggest contributing the written code to g-wrap and
encouraging people to hack there (i.e., "in examples/opengl there
are hand-crafted bindings by Daniel Skarda; type "make" in that
directory to see g-wrap (attempt to ;-) produce functionally
equivalent bindings").

on the other hand, there are probably many people who would be
interested in including your work in their project (guile-sdl comes
to mind), w/ more direct usage/maintenance relationship w/ the code
than those hacking general wrapping tools.  perhaps asking your
question on guile-user would attract those people to giving the
opengl bindings berth.  (then they will ask these same questions
later. :-)

alternatively, you can do the common thing and dump the project to
rot on sorceforge or savannah.  i don't recommend this unless you
have someone lined up to take the reins.
