+Mesa 7.2 Release Notes / 20 September 2008
+==========================================
+
+Mesa 7.2 is a stable release fixing bugs found in 7.1, which was a new
+development release.
+
+Mesa 7.2 implements the OpenGL 2.1 API, but the version reported by
+glGetString(GL_VERSION) depends on the particular driver being used.
+Some drivers don't support all the features required in OpenGL 2.1.
+
+Note that this version of Mesa does not use the GEM memory manager. The
+master branch of git uses GEM. The prototype DRI2 code that was in 7.1
+has also been removed.
+
+DRM version 2.3.1 should be used with Mesa 7.2

+
+New features
+------------
+
+-  i965 driver: added support for G41 chipset (Intel)
+
+Bug fixes
+---------
+
+-  Fixed display list bug involving primitives split across lists (bug
+   17564)
+-  Fixed some issues with glBindAttribLocation()
+-  Fixed crash in \_tnl_InvalidateState() found with Amira (bug 15834)
+-  Assorted bug fixes for Ming build
+-  Fixed some vertex/pixel buffer object reference counting bugs
+-  Fixed depth/stencil bug in i915/945 driver
+-  Fixed some shader flow control bugs in i965 driver
+-  Fixed a few tdfx driver bugs which prevented driver from working
+-  Fixed multisample enable/disable bug
+
+Changes
+-------
+
+-  Updated SGI header files with new license terms.
+
+To Do (someday) items
+---------------------
+
+-  Remove the MEMCPY() and \_mesa_memcpy() wrappers and just use
+   memcpy(). Probably do the same for malloc, calloc, etc. The wrappers
+   were useful in the past for memory debugging but now we have
+   valgrind. Not worried about SunOS 4 support anymore either...
+-  Switch to freeglut
+-  Fix linux-glide target/driver.
+-  Improved lambda and derivative calculation for frag progs.
