Brian Paul0b27ace2003-03-08 17:38:57 +00001541<pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
1542US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
1543Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
1544newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
1545
1546The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
1547improve performance on 3d hardware. Thanks to Keith's work, many
1548applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
1549over Mesa 3.0. The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
1550Mesa full time for some time to come.
1551
1552For more information about Mesa see www.mesa3d.org. For more
1553information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.

1555--------------------------------
1556
1557This donation from John/id is very generous. Keith and I are very
1558grateful.
