Mesa 7.6 Release Notes / date TBD
+ +
+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. +
+
+See the Compiling/Installing page for prerequisites +for DRI hardware acceleration. +
+
+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. +
