1794 <p>I've been working on Mesa in my spare time for over five years. With Precision
1795 Insight I now have the opportunity to devote my full attention to advancing Mesa
1796 and OpenGL on Linux.</p>
1797 <p>While I'll be focused on Linux, the X Window System, and hardware acceleration,
1798 my work will continue to be open sourced and available to any other programmers who
1799 may want to contribute to it, or use it for other projects or platforms</p>
1800 <p>PS: I'm going to be traveling until Sep 6 and won't be reading email until then.</p>

1835 <h2>May 13, 1999</h2>
1836 <pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
1837 US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
1838 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
1839 newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
1840
1841 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
1842 improve performance on 3d hardware.  Thanks to Keith's work, many
1843 applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
1844 over Mesa 3.0.  The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
1845 Mesa full time for some time to come.
1846

1848 information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.
