</p>
2202 <p>I've been working on Mesa in my spare time for over five years. With Precision
2203 Insight I now have the opportunity to devote my full attention to advancing Mesa
2204 and OpenGL on Linux.
</p>
2205 <p>While I'll be focused on Linux, the X Window System, and hardware acceleration,
2206 my work will continue to be open sourced and available to any other programmers who
2207 may want to contribute to it, or use it for other projects or platforms

1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
2245 US$
10,
000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
2246 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL
3D graphics library and id's
2247 newest game, Quake
3 Arena, will use Mesa as the
3D renderer on Linux.
2249 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
2250 improve performance on
3d hardware. Thanks to Keith's work, many
2251 applications using Mesa
3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
2252 over Mesa
3.0. The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
2253 Mesa full time for some time to come.
