17 <h1>Mesa 10.3 Release Notes / TBD</h1>
18
19 <p>
20 Mesa 10.3 is a new development release.
21 People who are concerned with stability and reliability should stick
22 with a previous release or wait for Mesa 10.3.1.
23 </p>
24 <p>
25 Mesa 10.3 implements the OpenGL 3.3 API, but the version reported by
26 glGetString(GL_VERSION) or glGetIntegerv(GL_MAJOR_VERSION) /
27 glGetIntegerv(GL_MINOR_VERSION) depends on the particular driver being used.
28 Some drivers don't support all the features required in OpenGL 3.3. OpenGL
29 3.3 is <strong>only</strong> available if requested at context creation
30 because compatibility contexts are not supported.
