+Mesa 7.6 is a new development release.
+People who are concerned with stability and reliability should stick
+with a previous release or wait for Mesa 7.6.1.
+
+
+Mesa 7.6 implements the OpenGL 2.1 API, but the version reported by
+glGetString(GL_VERSION) depends on the particular driver being used.
+Some drivers don't support all the features required in OpenGL 2.1.
+
+Note that the Mesa project is no longer using odd/even version numbers
+to indicate development/stable releases.
+The so-called development releases have been fairly stable.
+If you're especially concerned with stability you should probably look for
+"point" releases such as 7.5.1 which will be a bug-fix release.
