<h1>Downloading and Unpacking</h1>
<h2>Downloading</h2>
<p>
You can download the released versions of Mesa via
<a href="https://mesa.freedesktop.org/archive/">HTTPS</a>
or
<a href="ftp://ftp.freedesktop.org/pub/mesa/">FTP</a>.
</p>
<p>
Starting with the first release of 2017, Mesa's version scheme is
year-based. Filenames are in the form <code>mesa-Y.N.P.tar.gz</code>, where
<code>Y</code> is the year (two digits), <code>N</code> is an incremental number
(starting at 0) and <code>P</code> is the patch number (0 for the first
release, 1 for the first patch after that).
</p>
<p>
When a new release is coming, release candidates (betas) may be found
in the same directory, and are recognisable by the
<code>mesa-Y.N.P-<b>rc</b>X.tar.gz</code> filename.

<h2>Demos, GLUT, and GLU</h2>
<p>
A package of SGI's GLU library is available
2012-09-18 18:31:28 +01:00
<a href="ftp://ftp.freedesktop.org/pub/mesa/glu/">here</a>
</p>
<p>
A package of Mark Kilgard's GLUT library is available
2012-09-18 18:31:28 +01:00
<a href="ftp://ftp.freedesktop.org/pub/mesa/glut/">here</a>
</p>
<p>
The Mesa demos collection is available
2012-09-18 18:31:28 +01:00
<a href="ftp://ftp.freedesktop.org/pub/mesa/demos/">here</a>
</p>
<p>
In the past, GLUT, GLU and the Mesa demos were released in conjunction with
Mesa releases. But since GLUT, GLU and the demos change infrequently, they
were split off into their own git repositories:
<a href="https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/glut">GLUT</a>,
<a href="https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/glu">GLU</a> and
<a href="https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/demos">Demos</a>,
