The modelview matrix is set with the camera positioned at eye and looking at the focus points, while the camera up vector is in the plane of the camera axis focuseye and the specified up vector. The current matrix is the projection matrix, modelview matrix, or texture matrix, depending on the current matrix mode see glmatrixmode.
Most opengl programs start rendering a frame by setting the modelview matrix to the identity with a call to glloadidentity. The approach it uses is different from what is recommended in opengl programming guide. The current matrix, m, defines a transformation of coordinates. Its a standard mathematical procedure you can find in literally every textbook on linear algebra. The reason for this is the abstract nature of this elusive matrix. The functions for this in opengl are gltranslatef and gltranslated. Opengl is not a matrix math library, so it doesnt have a function for that. This matrix can be said to represent the camera position. I am now debugging some legacy code that sets up modelview and projection matrices for an opengl scene.

This is not longer true and one can write programs for the gpu using different apis. Well opengl being a state machine, has the ability to pop and push the current model view matrix, meaning you push on a duplicate of the current matrix before you do your translation, and then revert to the old matrix.
