Brian Paul0b27ace2003-03-08 17:38:57 +00001652<pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
1653US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
1654Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
1655newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
1656
1657The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
1658improve performance on 3d hardware. Thanks to Keith's work, many
1659applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
1660over Mesa 3.0. The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
1661Mesa full time for some time to come.
