ANN: OpenGLAda 0.6 and FreeTypeAda released

[Felix Krause <contact@flyx.org>]

In this version, the dated FTGL binding has been replaced by a binding 
to the FreeType library itself, which enables more flexibility for 
drawing text. Furthermore, a package GL.Text has been added which 
provides a more high-level API similar to FTGL. It depends on Dmitry A. 
Kazakov's excellent Strings_Edit [2] package for UTF-8 decoding so that 
it is easy to render any UTF-8 string.

Since the FreeType binding may be useful for purposes unrelated to 
OpenGL, it is also available as a separate project [3]; however, it 
currently has no own versioning scheme and no documentation and is 
simply synchronized with the OpenGLAda repository. The binding is not 
complete; it only wraps the parts that were necessary to use it with 
OpenGL. This may improve in the future.

The current OpenGLAda release is available as tag of its repository [1].
