+ Mesa 6.3 release notes
+
+ month day, 2004
+
+ PLEASE READ!!!!
+
+
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+Mesa uses an even/odd version number scheme like the Linux kernel.
+Odd numbered versions (such as 6.3) designate new developmental releases.
+Even numbered versions (such as 6.2) designate stable releases.
+
+
+
+To Do: PBO for polygon stipple, convolution filter, etc.
+
+

+
+Driver Status
+---------------------- ---------------------
+XMesa (Xlib) implements OpenGL 1.5
+OSMesa (off-screen) implements OpenGL 1.5
+Glide (3dfx Voodoo1/2) implements OpenGL 1.3
+SVGA implements OpenGL 1.3
+Wind River UGL implements OpenGL 1.3
+Windows/Win32 implements OpenGL 1.5
+DJGPP implements OpenGL 1.5
+GGI implements OpenGL 1.3
+BeOS implements OpenGL 1.5
+Allegro needs updating

These are the instructions for making a new Mesa release.
</p>
-<p>
-Prerequisites (later versions may work):
-</p>
-<ul>
-<li> autoconf 2.50
-<li> automake 1.4-p2
-<li> libtool 1.4
-</ul>
-
<p>
Be sure to do a "cvs update -d ." in the Mesa directory to
get all the latest files.
</p>
<p>
-Update the version definitions in src/version.h
+Update the version definitions in src/mesa/main/version.h
</p>
<p>
Create/edit the docs/RELNOTES-X.Y file to document what's new in the release.
-Edit the docs/VERSIONS file too.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-Edit Make-config and change the MESA_MAJOR and/or MESA_MINOR versions.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-Edit the GNU configure stuff to change versions numbers as needed:
-Update the version string (second argument) in the line
-"AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(Mesa, 3.3)" in the configure.in file.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-Remove the leading `dnl' from the line "dnl AM_MAINTAINER_MODE".
-</p>
-
-<p>
-Verify the version numbers near the top of configure.in
-</p>
-
-<p>
-Run "fixam -f" to disable automatic dependency tracking.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-Run the bootstrap script to generate the configure script.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-Edit Makefile.X11 and verify DIRECTORY is set correctly. The Mesa
-sources must be in that directory (or there must be a symbolic link).
+Update the docs/VERSIONS file too.
</p>
<p>
-Edit Makefile.X11 and verify that LIB_NAME and DEMO_NAME are correct.
-If it's a beta release, be sure the bump up the beta release number.
+Edit configs/default and change the MESA_MAJOR, MESA_MINOR and MESA_TINY
+version numbers.
</p>
<p>
-cp Makefile.X11 to Makefile so that the old-style Mesa makefiles
-still work. ./configure will overwrite it if that's what the user runs.
+Edit the top-level Makefile and verify that DIRECTORY, LIB_NAME and
+DEMO_NAME are correct.
</p>
<p>
-Make a symbolic link from $(DIRECTORY) to Mesa. For example,
-ln -s Mesa Mesa-3.3 This is needed in order to make a correct
+Make a symbolic link from $(DIRECTORY) to 'Mesa'. For example,
+ln -s Mesa Mesa-6.3 This is needed in order to make a correct
tar file in the next step.
</p>
<p>
Make the distribution files. From inside the Mesa directory:
<pre>
- make -f Makefile.X11 lib_tar
- make -f Makefile.X11 demo_tar
- make -f Makefile.X11 lib_zip
- make -f Makefile.X11 demo_zip
+ make tarballs
</pre>
<p>

-<p>
-In order to run the bootstrap script you'll need:
-<p>
-<pre>
-autoconf 2.50
-automake 1.4-p5
-libtool 1.4
-</pre>
