+<h2>New features</h2>
+<ul>
+<li>New DRI memory manager system. Currently used by the i915tex driver.
+Other DRI drivers will be updated to use the new memory manager in coming
+months.
+<br>
+To use the new driver you'll need the most recent DRM library and drivers
+(version 2.2 or later) and a recent xf86-video-intel driver module from X.org.
+<br>
+New features resulting from this work include:
+<ul>
+<li>EXT_framebuffer_objects, render to texture
+<li>ARB_pixel_buffer_objects
+<li>Accelerated CopyTexSubimage, DrawPixels, ReadPixels, CopyPixels
+<li>Accelerated texture uploads from pixel buffer objects
+<li>Potentially texturing directly from the pixel buffer object (zero
+copy texturing).
+</ul>
+<li>New Intel i965 DRI driver
+<li>New <code>minstall</code> script to replace normal install program
+<li>Faster fragment program execution in software
+<li>Added (or fixed) support for <a href="http://www.opengl.org/registry/specs/SGI/make_current_read.txt">
+ GLX_SGI_make_current_read</a> to the following drivers:
+ <ul>
+ <li>radeon</li>
+ <li>savage</li>
+ <li>mga</li>
+ <li>tdfx</li>
+ </ul>
+<li>Added support for ARB_occlusion_query to the tdfx driver (Ian
+Romanick).</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Bug fixes</h2>
+<ul>
+<li>fixed invalid memory read while rendering textured points (bug 8320)
+<li>fixed problems with freebsd-dri configuration (bug 8344)
+<li>Mesa's fake glxGetCurrentContext() wasn't thread-aware
+<li>OPTION NV_position_invariant didn't work in NV vertex programs
+<li>glDrawPixels into a user-created framebuffer object could crash Xlib driver
+<li>Line clipping was broken in some circumstances
+<li>fragment.fogcoord register didn't always contain the correct value
+<li>RGBA logicops didn't work reliably in some DRI drivers
+<li>Fixed broken RGBA LogicOps in Intel DRI drivers
+<li>Fixed some fragment program bugs in Intel i915 DRI driver
+<li>Fixed glGetVertexAttribfvARB bug 8883
+<li>Implemented glGetUniform[fi]vARB() functions
+<li>Fixed glDrawPixels(GL_COLOR_INDEX, GL_BITMAP) segfault (bug 9044)
+<li>Fixed some gluBuild2DMipmaps() bugs (Greg McGarragh)
+<li>Fixed broken "mgl" name mangling
+<li>Indirect rending was broken for glMap* functions (bug 8899)
+</ul>
+
+
+<h2>Internal code changes</h2>
+
+<ul>
+<li>The device driver functions ResizeBuffers and GetBufferSize have been
+decprecated.
+<li>OpenGL 2.0 and 2.1 support is nearly done. We need to do quite a bit
+more testing of the shading language functions.
+</ul>
+
+
+<h2>To Do (someday) items</h2>
+<ul>
+<li>Switch to freeglut
+<li>Increase MAX_DRAWBUFFERS
+<li>Fix linux-glide target/driver.
+<li>Improved lambda and derivative calculation for frag progs.
+</ul>
+
+
