+GL_ARB_texture_float extension (not finished yet)
+
+   Supports 16 and 32-bit floating point textures.
+
+GL_ARB_half_float_pixel extension (not finished yet)
+
+   Adds the GLhalfARB datatype for 16-bit floating point for glDraw/ReadPixels,
+   and glTexImage commands.

+
+Texture image handling
+----------------------
+
+The code which implements image conversion, pixel transfer ops, etc
+for glTexImage commands has been rewritten.
+
+Now the gl_texture_format struct has a new StoreImage function
+pointer.  Each texture format must implement this function.  The
+function is totally responsible for converting the user's texture
+image into the specific format.  A few helper functions makes this
+relatively simple.
+
+Overall, the code is much simpler, cleaner and easier to work with
+now.  Adding new texture formats is straight-forward and there's no
+longer any distinction between "hardware" and "software" formats.
+
+Finally, the code for compressed texture images has been reorganized
+as well.
+
+Removed files:
+  texutil.c
+  texutil.h
+  texutil_tmp.h
+
+New files:
+  texcompress_s3tc.c
+  texcompress_fxt1.c
