10.2

[Dair G. <da...@re...>]

Hi,

I've been working on some ideas for a lower-level-than-the-TriMesh
geometry type, which would let geometry data live in VRAM and fix a
couple of long-standing problems with the TriMesh (with vertices shared
between triangles that inherit a different value for some attribute from
each parent).

One of the other things this would be useful for is to start support for
vertex shaders, which allow vertices to be processed by the GPU rather
than the CPU.

Vertex shaders would require 10.2 (on the Mac), so before I get too far
into this can I check if anyone still needs Quesa support for prior to
that OS?

If so it shouldn't be a problem (and the geometry change would run on
anything), but it'd be useful to know if that was the majority situation
or the minority.
