| 14 | Mesa 7.1 is a new development release. |
| Brian Paul | 5173fc6 | 2008-05-27 12:51:10 -0600 | [diff] [blame^] | 15 | There have been many internal code changes since Mesa 7.0.x. |
| 16 | It should be relatively stable, but those who are especially concerned about |
| 17 | stability should wait for Mesa 7.2. |

| 28 | <ul> |
| Brian Paul | 5173fc6 | 2008-05-27 12:51:10 -0600 | [diff] [blame^] | 29 | <li>autoconf-based configuration |
| 30 | <li>Reduced dependencies between X server and Mesa |
| Brian | 80a5798 | 2007-05-19 08:29:04 -0600 | [diff] [blame] | 31 | <li>GL_EXT_texture_from_pixmap extension for Xlib driver |
| Brian | 2bdd467 | 2007-10-31 09:57:07 -0600 | [diff] [blame] | 32 | <li>Support for the GL shading language with i965 driver (implemented by Intel) |

| 37 | <ul> |
| Brian | d70fa02 | 2007-06-12 15:16:21 -0600 | [diff] [blame] | 38 | <li>Remove the MEMCPY() and _mesa_memcpy() wrappers and just use memcpy(). |
| 39 | Probably do the same for malloc, calloc, etc. |
| 40 | The wrappers were useful in the past for memory debugging but now we |
| 41 | have valgrind. Not worried about SunOS 4 support anymore either... |
| Brian | 347bb54 | 2007-05-14 14:40:59 -0600 | [diff] [blame] | 42 | <li>Switch to freeglut |
| 43 | <li>Fix linux-glide target/driver. |
| 44 | <li>Improved lambda and derivative calculation for frag progs. |
