Looks like Mesa has hit OpenGL 4.5 for the open source Nvidia 'nvc0' driver
It looks like in the last few days the 'nvc0' driver for Nvidia cards in Mesa has hit OpenGL 4.5 compatibility, joining Intel and AMD. Another great week, see this commit for the magic.
The last extension needed was 'GL_ARB_enhanced_layouts' from OpenGL 4.4 (with OpenGL 4.5 already done) which is now enabled for 'nvc0'.
All the different driver naming schemes sure are confusing. You can see more about the Nvidia codenames here. This states the 'nvc0' driver is for the 'Fermi' generation and some of 'Kepler'.
As always, you can keep track on the MesaMatrix website.

How does Linux need to change to achieve the 'year of the Linux desktop?'
The year of the Linux desktop has long been the unicorn of the open source movement. People have looked for it for quite a long time, but nobody’s ever seen it. But hope springs eternal, and for some the quest for the year of the Linux desktop goes on.

3.5-inch SBC expands upon Skylake-H
Commell’s 3.5-inch “LE-37I” SBC features Intel 6th Gen Core CPUs, and offers SATA 3, dual GbE, dual Mini-PCIe with SIM, and a wide-range power supply.
Like Commell’s 3.5-inch LE-37G single board computer, the LE-37I supports Intel’s 6th Gen (“Skylake”) Core processors, but this model uses the higher-end, mostly quad-core Skylake-H series processors rather than the LE-37G’s 15W, dual-core, 6th Gen U-Series chips. No OS support was listed, but Linux and Windows should run just fine.
