1870 New:
1871 - updated SVGA Linux driver
1872 - added the MESA_FX_NO_SIGNALS env var, see docs/README.3DFX
1873 - build libGLw.a (Xt/OpenGL drawing area widget) library by default
1874 - changed -O2 to -O3 for a number of gcc configs

1879 <p>Please report any problems with this release ASAP. Bugs should be filed on the
1880 Mesa3D website at sourceforge.<br>
1881 After 3.2 is wrapped up I hope to release 3.3 beta 1 soon afterward.</p>

1891 <h2>September 21, 1999</h2>
1892 <p>There appear to be two new files on the ftp site, <code>MesaLib-3.1beta3.tar.gz</code>
1893 and <code>MesaDemos-3.1beta3.tar.gz</code>,
1894 that seem to be... yes, I've just received confirmation from the beta center, they
1895 are indeed the <b>THIRD</b> beta release of Mesa 3.1! Happy Days. Happy Days. Thanks
1896 Keith Whitwell for preparing these for us during Brian's absence.</p>

1899 <p>I'm pleased to announce that I've accepted a position with Precision Insight,
1900 Inc. effective October, 1999. I'll be leaving Avid Technology in September.</p>
1901 <p>I've been working on Mesa in my spare time for over five years. With Precision
1902 Insight I now have the opportunity to devote my full attention to advancing Mesa
1903 and OpenGL on Linux.</p>
1904 <p>While I'll be focused on Linux, the X Window System, and hardware acceleration,
1905 my work will continue to be open sourced and available to any other programmers who
1906 may want to contribute to it, or use it for other projects or platforms</p>
1907 <p>PS: I'm going to be traveling until Sep 6 and won't be reading email until then.</p>

1910 <p>Anonymous CVS access is back online so suck up all the bandwidth you can afford.
1911 Note that this is a new archive, so you will need to re-checkout the archive. That
1912 means don't <i>cvs update</i> from a previous download.</p>

1929 <p><a href="http://www.nvidia.com/">nVidia</a> has released some Linux binaries for
1930 xfree86 3.3.3.1, along with the <b>full source</b>, which includes GLX acceleration
1931 based on Mesa 3.0. They can be downloaded from <code>http://www.nvidia.com/Products.nsf/htmlmedia/software_drivers.html</code>.</p>

1934 <p>Beta 2 of Mesa 3.1 has been make available at <code>ftp://ftp.mesa3d.org/mesa/beta/</code>.
1935 If you are into the quake scene, you may want to try this out, as it contains some
1936 optimizations specifically in the Q3A rendering path.

1942 <h2>May 13, 1999</h2>
1943 <pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
1944 US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
1945 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
1946 newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
1947
1948 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
1949 improve performance on 3d hardware. Thanks to Keith's work, many
1950 applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
1951 over Mesa 3.0. The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
1952 Mesa full time for some time to come.
1953

1955 information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.
