This two extensions present in NVidia gl header for very long time. What is their status? Are they supported, dropped, closed?
glDrawMeshNV looks very interesting.
PS.
I always feel nervous after reading copyright from NVidia gl header

you’ve been taking it for years,
it makes you swear and suffer on daily basis,
but you continue to desire for more, as each new, bigger dose (release) is so exciting…
I think ‘GLcrack’ would be a cool name for my extension-loading library, if I ever released it to public…
I hope NV_draw_mesh is some kind of geometry image API. This is pure speculation, though, but it would make sense if you had a render-to-geometry feature as well.
spoiler:
inside nvoglnt.dll there are some strings looking like error messages of shader/program compiler, making easy to guess what “combiner program” could be.
