OpenGL (3)

Should I get the OpenGL Programming Guide 7th Edition, or should I wait until the 8th Edition is released? I heard bad things about how the 7th Edition was rushed and did not take into account many of the features that were deprecated as of OpenGL 3.1.

Is it even worth learning the `newer' versions of OpenGL?

whatever you do, don't get the 7th edition

get the OpenGL superbible 5th ed. if you want to learn OpenGL,
the book is a good introduction to the new 3.3+ way of programming OpenGL

This looks interesting, thanks. Does it also cover GLU/GLUT?
