* Introduction
-Brian Paul added in Mesa 3.1 a driver for BeOS R4.5 operating system.
-This driver implements a clone of the BGLView class. This class, derived from BView, allows
-OpenGL rendering into any BeOS window.
-His driver was updated in Mesa 4.1 by Philippe Houdoin,
-who's maintaining this driver since.

+driver was updated in Mesa 4.1 and again in version 6.1 by Philippe
+Houdoin, who's maintaining this driver since.
Any application which uses the BGLView should be able to use Mesa
instead of Be's OpenGL without changing any code.
By default, it build a non-debug version library.
The x86 (MMX, SSE and 3DNOW) optimizations are also supported for x86 target.
-For PowerPC BeOS flavor, sorry, Mesa don't have ppc (Altivec) optimizations yet.

To build a DEBUG version, type instead this :
- BDirectWindow single buffering support is not implemented yet.
- Color index mode is not implemented yet.
- Reading pixels from the front buffer not implemented yet.
-- There is also a BGLScreen class in BeOS for full-screen OpenGL rendering. This should also be implemented for Mesa.
-- Multiple renderers add-ons support, first step toward hardware acceleration support.

* Other contributors to this BeOS port
if interested. Ideally, the 3Dfx/Glide support should be updated to
work with the new Mesa 3.1 BGLView implementation.
-The Glide library hasn't been updated for BeOS R4 and newer, to my knowledge, as
-of February, 1999.
