     10 <h1>Mesa 7.3 Release Notes / 22 January 2009</h1>
     11 
     12 <p>
     13 Mesa 7.3 is a new development release.
     14 Users especially concerned with stability should stick with latest
     15 stable release: version 7.2.
     16 </p>
     17 <p>
     18 Mesa 7.3 implements the OpenGL 2.1 API, but the version reported by
     19 glGetString(GL_VERSION) depends on the particular driver being used.
     20 Some drivers don't support all the features required in OpenGL 2.1.
     21 </p>
     22 <p>
     23 See the <a href="install.html">Compiling/Installing page</a> for prerequisites
     24 for DRI hardware acceleration.
