2021 <pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
2022 US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
2023 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
2024 newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
2025
2026 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
2027 improve performance on 3d hardware.  Thanks to Keith's work, many
2028 applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
2029 over Mesa 3.0.  The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
2030 Mesa full time for some time to come.
