DirectX Targets?

Monkey Forums/Monkey Programming/DirectX Targets?

I wonder if anyone has plans to work on a Direct X target for Monkey, I know we have the excellent GLFW target already and it is really quick for desktop games, but I worry about only having Open GL as the option for rendering the graphics as I am sure a lot of casual gamers (who portals tend to really cater for) might not have Open GL capable computers, or perhaphs just not configured to use it properly.

Also I realise we could perhaps use the XNA target but for creating games to sell via portals I am not sure about the laws and rules associated with this.

I am just concerned that game portals will not accept games which will only run on Open GL, or am I worrying over nothing?

[Edit} I just realised this is in the wrong forum too, I should wake up before posting :P
