1670 <p>Please report any problems with this release ASAP. Bugs should be filed on the
1671 Mesa3D website at sourceforge.<br>
1672 After 3.2 is wrapped up I hope to release 3.3 beta 1 soon afterward.</p>

1683 <p>There appear to be two new files on the ftp site, <code>MesaLib-3.1beta3.tar.gz</code>
1684 and <code>MesaDemos-3.1beta3.tar.gz</code>,
1685 that seem to be... yes, I've just received confirmation from the beta center, they
1686 are indeed the <b>THIRD</b> beta release of Mesa 3.1! Happy Days. Happy Days. Thanks
1687 Keith Whitwell for preparing these for us during Brian's absence.</p>

1690 <p>I'm pleased to announce that I've accepted a position with Precision Insight,
1691 Inc. effective October, 1999. I'll be leaving Avid Technology in September.</p>
1692 <p>I've been working on Mesa in my spare time for over five years. With Precision
1693 Insight I now have the opportunity to devote my full attention to advancing Mesa
1694 and OpenGL on Linux.</p>
1695 <p>While I'll be focused on Linux, the X Window System, and hardware acceleration,
1696 my work will continue to be open sourced and available to any other programmers who
1697 may want to contribute to it, or use it for other projects or platforms</p>
1698 <p>PS: I'm going to be traveling until Sep 6 and won't be reading email until then.</p>

1725 <p>Beta 2 of Mesa 3.1 has been make available at <code>ftp://ftp.mesa3d.org/mesa/beta/</code>.
1726 If you are into the quake scene, you may want to try this out, as it contains some
1727 optimizations specifically in the Q3A rendering path.

1733 <h2>May 13, 1999</h2>
1734 <pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
1735 US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
1736 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
1737 newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
1738
1739 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
1740 improve performance on 3d hardware.  Thanks to Keith's work, many
1741 applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
1742 over Mesa 3.0.  The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
1743 Mesa full time for some time to come.
1744

1746 information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.
