+<H1>Mesa 7.1 Release Notes / August 26, 2008</H1>
+
+<p>
+Mesa 7.1 is a new development release.
+There have been many internal code changes since Mesa 7.0.x.
+It should be relatively stable, but those who are especially concerned about
+stability should wait for Mesa 7.2 or use Mesa 7.0.4 (the previous stable
+release).
+</p>
+</>
+Note that this version of Mesa does not use the GEM memory manager.
+The master branch of git uses GEM.
+</p>
+<p>
+DRM version 2.3.1 should be used with Mesa 7.1
+</p>

+<h2>New features</h2>
+<ul>
+<li>autoconf-based configuration (and clean-up of Makefiles)
+<li>Assorted DRI driver enhancements
+<li>Reduced dependencies between X server and Mesa
+<li>GL_EXT_texture_from_pixmap extension for Xlib driver
+<li>Support for the GL shading language with i965 driver (implemented by Intel)
+<li>ATI R500 series support (Radeon X1300&#8211;X1950) in r300 DRI driver
+</ul>
+
+
+<h2>Bug fixes</h2>
+<ul>
+<li>Numerous GLSL fixes
+<li>Fixed some error code/detection bugs in the GLSL-related API functions
+<li>Lots of DRI driver fixes.
+</ul>
+
+
+<h2>To Do (someday) items</h2>
+<ul>
+<li>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...
+<li>Switch to freeglut
+<li>Fix linux-glide target/driver.
+<li>Improved lambda and derivative calculation for frag progs.
+</ul>
+
+
