The OpenGL Architecture Review Board (ARB) is an industry consortium that currently governs the OpenGL specification. It was formed in 1992, and defines the conformance tests, approves the OpenGL specification and advances the standard. On July 31 2006, it was announced that the ARB voted to transfer control of the OpenGL specification to Khronos Group.[1]

As of November 2004, the voting members are 3Dlabs, Apple Computer, ATI, Dell, IBM, Intel, NVIDIA, SGI and Sun Microsystems, plus other contributing members. Microsoft was an original voting member, but left in March 2003.

The group meets regularly every three months. Any company can apply for membership through an application.
