And why not 9 but 10

People must be so stupid always

Then D3D12 and the OGL 5 are more or less the same? A BF4 dev from Dive twittered some time ago that the D3D12 Spec reads like the Mantle documentation.

No, OpenGL 4.5 is more featured than Direct3D 12. Btw, Mantle is derived from Direct3D 12, not wise versa.

Nonsense.

If they are looking for a name OpenMantleX13 would be the best.

Anyone mentioning higher number sounds better is the worst jargon trash I have ever heard.

[blackiwid]

maybe "sdl gl" or simple direct grafics aka sdg or simple grafics library sgl or SimpleGL or DirectGL SdlGL would be good.

Because opengl is to sdl kind of the same as Direct3d is to DirectInput/DirectSound... then you could call the whole thing sdAll or sdcomplete whatever... something in this direction?

Somehow I always associate "core profile" with modern OpenGL. So I'd suggest something containing "core", even though it sounds a bit overused. Maybe "CoreGL"? I'm not sure.

Originally maybe. Afaik DX12 has gotten major enhancements still in late 2014 while Mantle has been out for ages

That sounds so Appley they probably have a trademark on it already
