i wonder which one i should use so i feel
opengl should be made part of phobos.
it would be very cool if we can compile
same opengl programs under windows/linux without
changing the source and without additional libraries.

feel free to support me ;]

Well, no ;) There are far to many possible underlying implementations 
for that to be a smart thing to do. Also, OpenGL grows fast, whereas a 
standard library should be as stable as possible (not barring new 
additions, but still).

You should use the one that works best for you. Derelict
(http://www.dsource.org/projects/derelict) might fit the bill.
