1658 <p>Please report any problems with this release ASAP. Bugs should be filed on the
1659 Mesa3D website at sourceforge.<br>
1660 After 3.2 is wrapped up I hope to release 3.3 beta 1 soon afterward.</p>

1671 <p>There appear to be two new files on the ftp site, <code>MesaLib-3.1beta3.tar.gz</code>
1672 and <code>MesaDemos-3.1beta3.tar.gz</code>,
1673 that seem to be... yes, I've just received confirmation from the beta center, they
1674 are indeed the <b>THIRD</b> beta release of Mesa 3.1! Happy Days. Happy Days. Thanks
1675 Keith Whitwell for preparing these for us during Brian's absence.</p>

1678 <p>I'm pleased to announce that I've accepted a position with Precision Insight,
1679 Inc. effective October, 1999. I'll be leaving Avid Technology in September.</p>
1680 <p>I've been working on Mesa in my spare time for over five years. With Precision
1681 Insight I now have the opportunity to devote my full attention to advancing Mesa
1682 and OpenGL on Linux.</p>
1683 <p>While I'll be focused on Linux, the X Window System, and hardware acceleration,
1684 my work will continue to be open sourced and available to any other programmers who
1685 may want to contribute to it, or use it for other projects or platforms</p>
1686 <p>PS: I'm going to be traveling until Sep 6 and won't be reading email until then.</p>

1708 <p><a href="http://www.nvidia.com/">nVidia</a> has released some Linux binaries for
1709 xfree86 3.3.3.1, along with the <b>full source</b>, which includes GLX acceleration
1710 based on Mesa 3.0. They can be downloaded from <code>http://www.nvidia.com/Products.nsf/htmlmedia/software_drivers.html</code>.</p>

1713 <p>Beta 2 of Mesa 3.1 has been make available at <code>ftp://ftp.mesa3d.org/mesa/beta/</code>.
1714 If you are into the quake scene, you may want to try this out, as it contains some
1715 optimizations specifically in the Q3A rendering path.

1721 <h2>May 13, 1999</h2>
1722 <pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
1723 US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
1724 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
1725 newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
1726
1727 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
1728 improve performance on 3d hardware.  Thanks to Keith's work, many
1729 applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
1730 over Mesa 3.0.  The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
1731 Mesa full time for some time to come.
1732

1734 information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.

1738 This donation from John/id is very generous.  Keith and I are very
