Erik Faye-Lund 4d066836e3 docs: convert articles to reructuredtext
This uses the previously added scripts to convert the documentation to
reStructuredText, which is both easier to read offline, and can be used
to generate modern HTML for online documentation.

No modification to the generated results have been done.

Mesa 7.3 Release Notes / 22 January 2009
========================================
Mesa 7.3 is a new development release. Users especially concerned with
stability should stick with latest stable release: version 7.2.
Mesa 7.3 implements the OpenGL 2.1 API, but the version reported by
glGetString(GL_VERSION) depends on the particular driver being used.
Some drivers don't support all the features required in OpenGL 2.1.
See the `Compiling/Installing page <../install.html>`__ for
prerequisites for DRI hardware acceleration.
