    Phoronix: These 17 Patches Effectively Put Intel Mesa Done With OpenGL 4.4 & 4.5

    Timothy Arceri sent out the latest version of his Intel Mesa patches for the ARB_enhanced_layouts OpenGL extension. These patches finish up this last GL extension that's needed by this open-source Intel Linux driver before it can claim OpenGL 4.4 and then 4.5 compliance...

    Catch up might not be ended, but situation is way much better now than some years ago! Definitely!

      This seems like a plausible explanation for why Mesa 12.0 has been delayed.

        These patches are not coming to Mesa 12.0... Mesa 12.0 was branched a month ago.

          He, he, so where is that release? Should be already been released 2 weeks ago.

          Layoffs, vacations... just guessing

            Probably just like when the previous Mesa release was delayed by a month earlier this year... Emil Velikov gets busy/sick/family-stuff so it slips by.

              AFAIK the release manager is Emil Velikov, and he had some pretty serious family issues in the recent past. My personal stance is : don't put pressure on mesa guys now, they'll sort it out themselves.

                I don't put pressure on anything, just followed what had been said... here on Jun 23, it was said it will be tommorow:

                Considering the requests, from different parties, the final release will be out tomorrow Friday after 20:00 GMT.

                    I want opengl 4.x on Haswell series = (
                    I don't think it's gonna happen watching Intel's history of only updating newest products. My old laptop stopped at opengl 2.1 so soon.
                    AMD is gonna support Vulkan on GCN 1.1 and 1.0 cards. It's an example of good behavior.
