Brian Paul0b27ace2003-03-08 17:38:57 +00001478<pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
1479US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
1480Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
1481newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
1482
1483The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
1484improve performance on 3d hardware. Thanks to Keith's work, many
1485applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
1486over Mesa 3.0. The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
1487Mesa full time for some time to come.
1488
1489For more information about Mesa see www.mesa3d.org. For more
1490information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.

1494This donation from John/id is very generous. Keith and I are very
1495grateful.
