Brian Paul0b27ace2003-03-08 17:38:57 +00001888<pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
1889US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
1890Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
1891newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
1892
1893The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
1894improve performance on 3d hardware. Thanks to Keith's work, many
1895applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
1896over Mesa 3.0. The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
1897Mesa full time for some time to come.
1898

1900information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.
