2059 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL
3D graphics library and id's

3D renderer on Linux.
2062 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
2063 improve performance on
3d hardware. Thanks to Keith's work, many
2064 applications using Mesa
3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
2065 over Mesa
3.0. The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
2066 Mesa full time for some time to come.
