        Mesa 17.2 continues with complete OpenGL 4.5 support for Intel i965 and RadeonSI while offering partial OpenGL 4.6 support. Hopefully for Mesa 17.3 next quarter we will see OpenGL 4.6 compliance.
        Ha, I remember when we were dreaming the day opensource was able to catch the proprietary blobs, and now look where we are.

              Well I couldn't be happier, with Mesa 17.2, I can at last stop using mesa GIT, everything seems to run great on my boxes with 17.2, so for now on no more scared of running updates and breaking games/steam, etc. It is incredible how much have Mesa and the open source drivers improved over the space of barely two years.
