José, I think he was referrring to this branch: <a href="http://cgit.freedesktop.org/%7Emareko/mesa/log/?h=floating2" target="_blank">http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~mareko/mesa/log/?h=floating2</a> It's based on the Luca Barbieri's branch with additional bug fixes and improvements and it's been tested with r300g, which now has *complete* floating-point texture and renderbuffer support, in addition to softpipe. There are a lot of piglit tests for ARB_texture_float and ARB_color_buffer_float, which test these features: - texturing and wrap modes - texture swizzling - texture border color - mipmapping and generatemipmap - clearing - blending - alphatest - clamping controls all with floating-point formats. The display list support for glClampColorARB is missing, but otherwise the float support can be considered stable and it passes most of the tests (more than proprietary drivers do). I constantly keep it in sync with master (recently I have been rebasing it instead of doing git merges). The Luca's commits are squashed to have one commit per feature/component and to allow for easier review. Each commit has its own history for reference.

The floating branch doesn't match your description -- it hasn't been updated my Marek or anybody else in a long time.

We will never get full OpenGL 3.0+ compliance if we don't merge in the floating branch. Attached you will find a patch against Marek's floating branch to hide the patented extensions behind a configure switch. Please ACK if you think we could merge in floating or give some opinion why you think we couldn't merge.
