+<h1>Mesa 7.9 Release Notes / October 4, 2010</h1>
+
+<p>
+Mesa 7.9 is a new development release.
+People who are concerned with stability and reliability should stick
+with a previous release or wait for Mesa 7.9.1.
+</p>
+<p>
+Mesa 7.9 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.
+</p>
+<p>
+See the <a href="../install.html">Compiling/Installing page</a> for prerequisites
+for DRI hardware acceleration.
+</p>

+<h2>New features</h2>
+<ul>
+<li>New, improved GLSL compiler written by Intel.
+    See the <a href="../shading.html"> Shading Language</a> page for
+    more information.
+<li>New, very experimental Gallium driver for R600-R700 Radeons.
+<li>Support for AMD Evergreen-based Radeons (HD 5xxx)
+<li>GL_EXT_timer_query extension (i965 driver and softpipe only)
+<li>GL_EXT_framebuffer_multisample extension (intel drivers, MAX_SAMPLES = 1)
+<li>GL_ARB_texture_swizzle extension (alias of GL_EXT_texture_swizzle)
+<li>GL_ARB_draw_elements_base_vertex, GL_ARB_fragment_program_shadow,
+    GL_ARB_window_pos, GL_EXT_gpu_program_parameters,
+    GL_ATI_texture_env_combine3, GL_MESA_pack_invert, and GL_OES_EGL_image
+    extensions in Gallium drivers
+<li>GL_ARB_depth_clamp and GL_NV_depth_clamp extensions (in nv50 and r600
+    Gallium drivers)
+<li>GL_ARB_half_float_vertex extension (in nvfx, r300, r600, softpipe,
+    and llvmpipe Gallium drivers)
+<li>GL_EXT_draw_buffers2 (in nv50, r600, softpipe, and llvmpipe Gallium
+    drivers)
+<li>GL_EXT_texture_swizzle (in nvfx, r300, r600, softpipe, and llvmpipe
+    Gallium drivers)
+<li>GL_ATI_texture_mirror_once (in nvfx, nv50, r300, r600, softpipe, and
+    llvmpipe Gallium drivers)
+<li>GL_NV_conditional_render (in r300 Gallium driver)
+<li>Initial "signs of life" support for Sandybridge hardware in i965 DRI
+    driver.
+</ul>
+
+
+<h2>Bug fixes</h2>
+<p>This list is likely incomplete.</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Massive improvements to the Gallium driver for R300-R500 Radeons; this
+    driver is now considered stable for use as a DRI (OpenGL) driver.
