Mesa 6.5 Release Notes
month, day, 2005

------------
Mesa uses an even/odd version number scheme like the Linux kernel.
Odd numbered versions (such as 6.5) designate new developmental releases.
Even numbered versions (such as 6.4) designate stable releases.
New Features
------------
GL_EXT_timer_query - used to get elapsed time information from the renderer.
Driver Interface Changes
------------------------
Stencil: The Driver.StencilOp/Func/Mask() functions have been replaced by
the two-sided versions: Driver.Stencil*Separate().
To Do
-----
Fix linux-glide target/driver.
Fix lambda calculation for frag progs.
Removed Extensions
------------------
The following extensions have been removed:
GL_HP_occlusion_test - this is superceded by GL_ARB_occlusion_query.
