     11 <H1>Mesa 7.3 Release Notes / 22 January 2009</H1>
     12 
     13 <p>
     14 Mesa 7.3 is a new development release.
     15 Users especially concerned with stability should stick with latest
     16 stable release: version 7.2.
     17 </p>
     18 <p>
     19 Mesa 7.3 implements the OpenGL 2.1 API, but the version reported by
     20 glGetString(GL_VERSION) depends on the particular driver being used.
     21 Some drivers don't support all the features required in OpenGL 2.1.
     22 </p>
     23 <p>
     24 See the <a href="install.html">Compiling/Installing page</a> for prerequisites
     25 for DRI hardware acceleration.
