- Disclaimer
- Mesa is a 3-D graphics library with an API which is very similar to

- To the extent that Mesa utilizes the OpenGL command syntax or state
- machine, it is being used with authorization from Silicon Graphics,
- Inc.(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.
- Please do not refer to the library as MesaGL (for legal
- reasons). It's just Mesa or The Mesa 3-D graphics
- library
