# Mesa 7.10 Release Notes / tbd

Mesa 7.10 is a new development release. People who are concerned with stability and reliability should stick with a previous release or wait for Mesa 7.10.1.

Mesa 7.10 implements the OpenGL 2.1 API, but the version reported by glGetString(GL_VERSION) depends on the particular driver being used. Some drivers don't support all the features required in OpenGL 2.1.

See the Compiling/Installing page for prerequisites for DRI hardware acceleration.
