Second Mesa 13.0.0 3D Graphics Library RC Out Now, Final Could Launch October 28

The development cycle of the major Mesa 3D Graphics Library 13.0.0 branch, due for release later this month, on the 28th of October, started last week, on October 19, with the Release Candidate 1 milestone. And today, we’re able to test drive the second RC build, which introduces even more bug fixes and improvements. Among the changes implemented in Mesa 13.0.0 RC2, we can mention the move of the BlendBarrier and PrimitiveBoundingBox definitions into the ES3.2 category for GLAPI, export of all GLES (OpenGL ES) 3.2 functions in the libGLESv2.so library, and the set of the VISIBILITY_CFLAGS argument for shared GLAPI to the automake file the MAPI generic OpenVG dispatcher.
