2005 <pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
2006 US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
2007 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
2008 newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
2009
2010 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
2011 improve performance on 3d hardware.  Thanks to Keith's work, many
2012 applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
2013 over Mesa 3.0.  The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
2014 Mesa full time for some time to come.
