Plus some audience submitted topics, Apple’s 30% cut, feedback & more!

• Vulkan Android Support Incoming

• Rich Geldreich’s Tech Blog: Things that drive me nuts about OpenGL

• WWDC 2014 Metal for iOS 8 – YouTube

Google's adoption of #Vulkan for Android graphics should ensure that all Linux-based platforms standardize on Vulkan. Yay Google!
