<H1>Introduction</H1>
<p>
Mesa is a 3-D graphics library with an API which is very similar to
that of <a href="http://www.opengl.org/" target="_parent">OpenGL</a>.*
To the extent that Mesa utilizes the OpenGL command syntax or state
machine, it is being used with authorization from <a
href="http://www.sgi.com/" target="_parent">Silicon Graphics,
Inc.</a>(SGI). However, the author does not possess an OpenGL license
from SGI, and makes no claim that Mesa is in any way a compatible
replacement for OpenGL or associated with SGI. Those who want a
licensed implementation of OpenGL should contact a licensed
vendor.
Mesa is an open-source implementation of the
<a href="http://www.opengl.org/" target="_parent">OpenGL</a> specification -
a system for rendering interactive 3D graphics.
</p>
<p>
Please do not refer to the library as <em>MesaGL</em> (for legal
reasons). It's just <em>Mesa</em> or <em>The Mesa 3-D graphics
library</em>. <br>
A variety of device drivers allows Mesa to be used in many different
environments ranging from software emulation to complete hardware acceleration
for modern GPUs.
</p>

Mesa ties into several other open-source projects: the
<a href="http://dri.sf.net/" target="_parent">Direct Rendering Infrastructure</a>
and <a href="http://x.org" target="_parent">X.org</a> to provide OpenGL
support to users of X on Linux, FreeBSD and other operating systems.

<H1>Project History</H1>

The Mesa project was founded by me, Brian Paul. Here's a short history
of the project.
