<h2>Shared library numbering</h2>
<p>
Mesa 6.5.3 supports the OpenGL 2.0/2.1 API. However, the (unix)
shared library version is still 1.5 (i.e. libGL.so.1.5.xxxxxx).
Bumping the shared library version to 2.x would cause linking problems
with existing OpenGL applications. Since OpenGL 2.x is backward
compatible with OpenGL 1.x the shared library version number doesn't
have to be incremented (which would indicate an incompatible ABI).
</p>
<p>
Other OpenGL vendors name their OpenGL 2.x libraries libGL.so.1.0.xxxxx
for the same reason.
