2077 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL
3D graphics library and id's
2078 newest game, Quake

3D renderer on Linux.
2080 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
2081 improve performance on
3d hardware. Thanks to Keith's work, many
2082 applications using Mesa
3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
2083 over Mesa
3.0. The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
