11 <H1>Mesa 7.1 Release Notes / May XX, 2008</H1>
14 Mesa 7.1 is a new development release.
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.
21 <h2>MD5 checksums</h2>
29 <li>autoconf-based configuration (and clean-up of Makefiles)
30 <li>Reduced dependencies between X server and Mesa
31 <li>GL_EXT_texture_from_pixmap extension for Xlib driver
32 <li>Support for the GL shading language with i965 driver (implemented by Intel)
38 <li>Fixed a number of minor GLSL intrinsic function/constructor bugs
39 <li>Fixed some error code/detection bugs in the GLSL-related API functions
43 <h2>To Do (someday) items</h2>
45 <li>Remove the MEMCPY() and _mesa_memcpy() wrappers and just use memcpy().
46 Probably do the same for malloc, calloc, etc.
47 The wrappers were useful in the past for memory debugging but now we
48 have valgrind. Not worried about SunOS 4 support anymore either...
49 <li>Switch to freeglut
50 <li>Fix linux-glide target/driver.
51 <li>Improved lambda and derivative calculation for frag progs.
