-Mesa is distributed in several parts:
-</p>
-<ul>
-<li><b>MesaLib-x.y.z</b> - the main Mesa library source code, drivers
- and documentation.
-</li>
-<li><b>MesaDemos-x.y.z</b> - OpenGL demonstration and test programs.
- Most of the programs require GLUT (either the
- <a href="http://www.opengl.org/resources/libraries/glut"
- target="_parent">original GLUT by Mark Kilgard</a> or
- <a href="http://freeglut.sourceforge.net" target="_parent">freeglut</a> or
- <a href="http://openglut.sourceforge.net" target="_parent">OpenGLUT</a>).
-</li>
-<li><b>MesaGLUT-x.y.z</b> - Mark Kilgard's GLUT, easily compiled and used
- with Mesa. Plus, other implementation of GLUT for DOS, OS/2, BeOS, etc.
-</li>
-</ul>
-
-<p>
-If you're not interested in running the demos, you'll only need the first
-package.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-If you're new to this and not sure what you're doing, grab all three packages.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-The packages are available in .tar.gz, .tar.bz2 and .zip formats.
-Other sites might offer additional package formats.
-</p>
-

-
-<p>
-All the packages should be in the same directory prior to unpacking.

-<ul>
-<li>To unpack .tar.gz files:
-<pre>
- tar zxf MesaLib-X.Y.tar.gz
- tar zxf MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.gz
- tar zxf MesaGLUT-X.Y.tar.gz
-</pre>
-or
-<pre>
- gzcat MesaLib-X.Y.tar.gz | tar xf -
- gzcat MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.gz | tar xf -
- gzcat MesaGLUT-X.Y.tar.gz | tar xf -
-</pre>
-or
-<pre>
- gunzip MesaLib-X.Y.tar.gz ; tar xf MesaLib-X.Y.tar
- gunzip MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.gz ; tar xf MesaDemos-X.Y.tar
- gunzip MesaGLUT-X.Y.tar.gz ; tar xf MesaGLUT-X.Y.tar
-</pre>
-<li>To unpack .tar.bz2 files:
-<pre>
- bunzip2 -c MesaLib-X.Y.tar.gz | tar xf -
- bunzip2 -c MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.gz | tar xf -
- bunzip2 -c MesaGLUT-X.Y.tar.gz | tar xf -

- unzip MesaLib-X.Y.zip
- unzip MesaDemos-X.Y.zip
- unzip MesaGLUT-X.Y.zip

-After unpacking you'll have these files and directories (among others):
-</p>
-<pre>
-Makefile - top-level Makefile for most systems
-configs/ - makefile parameter files for various systems
-include/ - GL header (include) files
-bin/ - shell scripts for making shared libraries, etc
-docs/ - documentation

-src/glu - libGLU source code
-src/glx - sources for building libGL with full GLX and DRI support
-src/glw - Xt/Motif/OpenGL widget code
-</pre>
-
-If you downloaded and unpacked the MesaDemos.X.Y package:
-
-<pre>
-progs/demos - original Mesa demos
-progs/xdemos - GLX OpenGL/Mesa demos
-progs/redbook - examples from the OpenGL Programming Guide
-progs/samples - examples from SGI
-progs/images/ - image files

+The Mesa package is named MesaLib-x.y.z.{tar.bz2, tar.gz, zip} where x.y.z
+is the version. There are three types of compressed archives.
+</p>
+<p>
+There's also the MesaGLUT-x.y.z.{tar.bz2, tar.gz, zip} packages which
+contain Mark Kilgard's GLUT library.
+This is optional.
+Most Linux distributions include an implementation of GLUT (such as freeglut).
+</p>
+<p>
+In the past, the Mesa demos collection was distributed as
+MesaDemos-x.y.z.{tar.bz2, tar.gz, zip}.
+Now, the
+<a href="ftp://ftp.freedesktop.org/pub/mesa/demos/" target="_parent">
+Mesa demos</a> are distributed separately.
