  20 <p>There are four Mesa 3D / DRI mailing lists:
  21 </p>
  22
  23 <ul>
  24 <li><p><a href="https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-users">mesa-users</a>
  25 - intended for end-users of Mesa and DRI drivers. Newbie questions are OK,
  26 but please try the general OpenGL resources and Mesa/DRI documentation first.</p>
  27 </li>
  28 <li><p><a href="https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-dev">mesa-dev</a>
  29 - for Mesa, Gallium and DRI development
  30 discussion.  Not for beginners.</p>
  31 </li>
  32 <li><p><a href="https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-commit">mesa-commit</a>
  33 - relays git check-in messages (for developers).
  34 In general, people should not post to this list.</p>
  35 </li>
  36 <li><p><a href="https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-announce">mesa-announce</a>
  37 - announcements of new Mesa
  38 versions are sent to this list.  Very low traffic.</p>
  39 </li>
  40 <li><p><a href="https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/piglit">piglit</a>
  41 - for Piglit (OpenGL driver testing framework) discussion.</p>
  42 </li>
  43 </ul>
