1641US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
1642Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
1643newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
1644
1645The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
1646improve performance on 3d hardware. Thanks to Keith's work, many
1647applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
1648over Mesa 3.0. The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
1649Mesa full time for some time to come.
