2283 and OpenGL on Linux.</p>
2284 <p>While I'll be focused on Linux, the X Window System, and hardware acceleration,
2285 my work will continue to be open sourced and available to any other programmers who
2286 may want to contribute to it, or use it for other projects or platforms</p>
2287 <p>PS: I'm going to be traveling until Sep 6 and won't be reading email until then.</p>

2322 <h2>May 13, 1999</h2>
2323 <pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
2324 US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
2325 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
2326 newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
2327
2328 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
2329 improve performance on 3d hardware.  Thanks to Keith's work, many
2330 applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
2331 over Mesa 3.0.  The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
2332 Mesa full time for some time to come.
2333

2335 information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.
