2269 <p>I've been working on Mesa in my spare time for over five years. With Precision
2270 Insight I now have the opportunity to devote my full attention to advancing Mesa
2271 and OpenGL on Linux.</p>
2272 <p>While I'll be focused on Linux, the X Window System, and hardware acceleration,
2273 my work will continue to be open sourced and available to any other programmers who
2274 may want to contribute to it, or use it for other projects or platforms</p>
2275 <p>PS: I'm going to be traveling until Sep 6 and won't be reading email until then.</p>

2310 <h2>May 13, 1999</h2>
2311 <pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
2312 US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
2313 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
2314 newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
2315
2316 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
2317 improve performance on 3d hardware.  Thanks to Keith's work, many
2318 applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
2319 over Mesa 3.0.  The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
2320 Mesa full time for some time to come.
2321

2323 information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.
