+Epoxy is a library for handling OpenGL function pointer management for you.
+
+It hides the complexity of dlopen(), dlsym(), glXGetProcAddress(),
+eglGetProcAddress(), etc. from the app developer, with very little knowledge
+needed on their part. They get to read GL specs and write code using
+undecorated function names like glCompileShader().
+
+libepoxy can be used during the build process of xorg-server, and if found in
+the system, will be used at build time. This may be used with xorg-server-1.16
+or later versions of xorg-server.
