,----[ Quote ]
| Tungsten's Brian Paul has today announced the release of Mesa 7.1. New in
| this open-source library used by Linux graphics drivers for providing OpenGL
| support is autoconf-based configuration, assorted DRI driver enhancements,
| reduced dependencies between the X server and Mesa,
| GL_EXT_texture_from_pixmap extension for Xlib driver, GLSL (GL Shading
| Language) support for the Intel 965, and ATI Radeon R500 (X1000) series
| support. Sorry folks, no OpenGL 3.0 support.

Mesa 7.0 released
,----[ Quote ]
| This release is quite important for me since I really would like to play
| Secret Mayro, but that requires OpenGL 1.4 at least to work properly.
| Also, the free drivers now finally reach the proprietary drivers in
| terms of OpenGL support since the proprietary Linux drivers from AMD
| and Nvidia feature OpenGL 2.0 support for quite some time.

Short Overview: Current State of Mesa and OpenGL on Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| In any case, the new Mesa will be released soon. And since it will be
| the first main release after 3 years we can expect a lot of news
| coverage, maybe even an interview or two and quite some information
| about the road map of Mesa and even OpenGL.

OpenGL 3.0 - A Big Step in the Right Direction
,----[ Quote ]
| GL 3.0 takes two important steps to moving open standard graphics forward in
| a major way. The first is to provide core and ARB extension access to the new
| and exciting capabilities of hardware. The second is to create a roadmap that
| allows developers to see what parts of core specifications will be going away
| in the future, also providing the OpenGL ARB with a way to introduce new
| features faster.
