> OpenGL 1.1-style implementation on software

How many lines to implement OpenGL 2.0 (non ES) ?

I implemented the OpenGL API for fixed function hardware once, and chose the cut off at 1.5 with some extensions like framebuffer objects. 1.x has a lot of cruft that nobody should use, but is still easy to implement. 2.x has a lot of stuff like shaders that are a lot more work to implement in software.
