2211
2212 <p>Please report any problems with this release ASAP. Bugs should be filed on the
2213 Mesa3D website at sourceforge.<br>
2214 After 3.2 is wrapped up I hope to release 3.3 beta 1 soon afterward.</p>

2226 and <code>MesaDemos-3.1beta3.tar.gz</code>,
2227 that seem to be... yes, I've just received confirmation from the beta center, they
2228 are indeed the <b>THIRD</b> beta release of Mesa 3.1! Happy Days. Happy Days. Thanks

2232 <p>I'm pleased to announce that I've accepted a position with Precision Insight,
2233 Inc. effective October, 1999. I'll be leaving Avid Technology in September.</p>
2234 <p>I've been working on Mesa in my spare time for over five years. With Precision
2235 Insight I now have the opportunity to devote my full attention to advancing Mesa
2236 and OpenGL on Linux.</p>
2237 <p>While I'll be focused on Linux, the X Window System, and hardware acceleration,
2238 my work will continue to be open sourced and available to any other programmers who
2239 may want to contribute to it, or use it for other projects or platforms</p>
2240 <p>PS: I'm going to be traveling until Sep 6 and won't be reading email until then.</p>

2275 <h2>May 13, 1999</h2>
2276 <pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
2277 US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
2278 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
2279 newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
2280
2281 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
2282 improve performance on 3d hardware.  Thanks to Keith's work, many
2283 applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
2284 over Mesa 3.0.  The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
2285 Mesa full time for some time to come.
2286

2288 information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.

2292 This donation from John/id is very generous.  Keith and I are very
2293 grateful.
