2251 <p>I'm pleased to announce that I've accepted a position with Precision Insight,
2252 Inc. effective October, 1999. I'll be leaving Avid Technology in September.</p>
2253 <p>I've been working on Mesa in my spare time for over five years. With Precision
2254 Insight I now have the opportunity to devote my full attention to advancing Mesa
2255 and OpenGL on Linux.</p>
2256 <p>While I'll be focused on Linux, the X Window System, and hardware acceleration,
2257 my work will continue to be open sourced and available to any other programmers who
2258 may want to contribute to it, or use it for other projects or platforms</p>
2259 <p>PS: I'm going to be traveling until Sep 6 and won't be reading email until then.</p>

2294 <h2>May 13, 1999</h2>
2295 <pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
2296 US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
2297 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
2298 newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
2299
2300 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
2301 improve performance on 3d hardware.  Thanks to Keith's work, many
2302 applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
2303 over Mesa 3.0.  The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
2304 Mesa full time for some time to come.
2305

2307 information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.
