Introduction
------------

Mesa uses an even/odd version number scheme like the Linux kernel.
Odd numbered versions (such as 6.3) designate new developmental releases.
Even numbered versions (such as 6.2) designate stable releases.



New Features
------------

GL_ARB_draw_buffers - allows a fragment program to write to a number of
  separate color buffers, instead of just one.

GL_OES_read_format - allows one to query the fastest glReadPixels format
  and datatype.



To Do before release
--------------------
 Fix dinoshade bug
 Switch to freeglut
 Increase MAX_DRAWBUFFERS
