Brian Paul0b27ace2003-03-08 17:38:57 +00001955<pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
1956US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
1957Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
1958newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
1959
1960The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
1961improve performance on 3d hardware. Thanks to Keith's work, many
1962applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
1963over Mesa 3.0. The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
1964Mesa full time for some time to come.
