1412 Mesa's directory tree has been overhauled.
1413 Things are better organized now with some thought toward future needs.
1414 </p>
1415 <p>
1416 In CVS, the latest Mesa 5.1 development code is now rooted under the
1417 <b>Mesa-newtree/</b> directory.  The old top-level <b>Mesa/</b> directory
1418 holds the Mesa 5.0.x code which will be abandoned at some point.

1968 <pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
1969 US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
1970 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
1971 newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
1972
1973 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
1974 improve performance on 3d hardware.  Thanks to Keith's work, many
1975 applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
1976 over Mesa 3.0.  The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
1977 Mesa full time for some time to come.

1980 information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.
