+  • List of changes since Cogl 1.9.6
+
+  » Various Visual Studio build fixes
+  » Correctly check for GL_EXT_packed_depth_stencil and support using
+    GL_OES_packed_depth_stencil on GLES2
+  » Correctly handle pre-multiplied alpha conversions when reading
+    back texture data.
+  » Added cogl_renderer_{get,set}_driver functions so the underlying
+    driver can be chosen programmatically.
+  » Revamped the conformance testing framework so that it
+    automatically runs every test against GLES2 as well as GL and also
+    against all of the pipeline backends and with npot textures
+    disabled.
+  » Add a conformance test for reading back an RGBA texture as
+    alpha-only
+  » Added support for converting between all of Cogl's supported pixel
+    formats including pre-multiplied alpha conversions.
+  » Added conformance tests for converting to and from all of the
+    supported formats.
+  » Added a public cogl_framebuffer_read_pixels_into_bitmap()
+    function which will effective read into a CoglPixelBuffer.
+  » CoglPixelBuffer was changed to no longer have associated width,
+    height and format information and instead we will rely on
+    CoglBitmap to track that informations. The relationship is
+    analogous how CoglAttributes relate to CoglAttributeBuffers
+    and means for example that a CoglPixelBuffer could now be used
+    to hold multiple images.
+  » Added public cogl_bitmap_get_{width,height,format,rowstride} api
+  » Added a public accessor for the underlying pixel buffer of a
+    CoglBitmap.
+  » Added various missing cast macros for some buffer objects.
+  » Ported the Clutter based test-pixel-buffer test to be standalone.
+
