Hooray for fact checking! I'm all for replacing that page - it hasn't been useful in years. How about replacing it with links to other places: Ilia's glxinfo site - shows accurate information about what specific GPUs support in actual Mesa releases: http://people.freedesktop.org/~imirkin/glxinfo/glxinfo.html Current feature development status: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/tree/docs/GL3.txt which can be helpfully visualized at: http://mesamatrix.net/ --Ken
