2659 <p>I've been working on Mesa in my spare time for over five years. With Precision
2660 Insight I now have the opportunity to devote my full attention to advancing Mesa
2661 and OpenGL on Linux.
</p>
2662 <p>While I'll be focused on Linux, the X Window System, and hardware acceleration,
2663 my work will continue to be open sourced and available to any other programmers who
2664 may want to contribute to it, or use it for other projects or platforms
</p>
2665 <p>PS: I'm going to be traveling until Sep
6 and won't be reading email until then.

1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
2709 US$
10,
000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
2710 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL
3D graphics library and id's
2711 newest game, Quake
3 Arena, will use Mesa as the
3D renderer on Linux.
2713 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
2714 improve performance on
3d hardware. Thanks to Keith's work, many
2715 applications using Mesa
3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
2716 over Mesa
3.0. The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
2717 Mesa full time for some time to come.
2719 For more information about Mesa see www.mesa3d.org. For more
2720 information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.
