  17 <h1>Mesa 9.1 Release Notes / February 22, 2013</h1>
  18
  19 <p>
  20 Mesa 9.1 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 9.1.1.
  23 </p>
  24 <p>
  25 Mesa 9.1 implements the OpenGL 3.1 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 3.1.  OpenGL
  29 3.1 is <strong>only</strong> available if requested at context creation
  30 because GL_ARB_compatibility is not supported.
