  17 <h1>Mesa 18.2.0 Release Notes / TBD</h1>
  18
  19 <p>
  20 Mesa 18.2.0 is a new development release. People who are concerned
  21 with stability and reliability should stick with a previous release or
  22 wait for Mesa 18.2.1.
  23 </p>
  24 <p>
  25 Mesa 18.2.0 implements the OpenGL 4.5 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 4.5.  OpenGL
  29 4.5 is <strong>only</strong> available if requested at context creation.
  30 Compatibility contexts may report a lower version depending on each driver.
  31 </p>

  33 <p>
  34 libwayland-egl is now distributed by libwayland (since 1.15,
  35 <a href="https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/wayland-devel/2018-April/037767.html">see announcement</a>),
  36 and has been removed from Mesa in this release. Make sure you're using
  37 an up-to-date version of libwayland to keep the functionality.
