Is lima actually usable today as a drop-in replacement for libOpenGLES,
libEGL and so on? Last time I had some infos, my understanding was that
it was still some experimental code that isn't yet available in a form
of a drop-in OpenGL ES implementation. I've been looking around
yesterday for more details on the Lima website, but things aren't
really clear, even by having a quick look at the source code.

Best regards,

Thomas
