  10 <h1>Mesa 7.3 Release Notes / 22 January 2009</h1>
  11
  12 <p>
  13 Mesa 7.3 is a new development release.
  14 Users especially concerned with stability should stick with latest
  15 stable release: version 7.2.
  16 </p>
  17 <p>
  18 Mesa 7.3 implements the OpenGL 2.1 API, but the version reported by
  19 glGetString(GL_VERSION) depends on the particular driver being used.
  20 Some drivers don't support all the features required in OpenGL 2.1.
  21 </p>
  22 <p>
  23 See the <a href="install.html">Compiling/Installing page</a> for prerequisites
  24 for DRI hardware acceleration.
