1729 <p>Please report any problems with this release ASAP. Bugs should be filed on the
1730 Mesa3D website at sourceforge.<br>
1731 After 3.2 is wrapped up I hope to release 3.3 beta 1 soon afterward.</p>

1743 and <code>MesaDemos-3.1beta3.tar.gz</code>,
1744 that seem to be... yes, I've just received confirmation from the beta center, they
1745 are indeed the <b>THIRD</b> beta release of Mesa 3.1! Happy Days. Happy Days. Thanks

1749 <p>I'm pleased to announce that I've accepted a position with Precision Insight,
1750 Inc. effective October, 1999. I'll be leaving Avid Technology in September.</p>
1751 <p>I've been working on Mesa in my spare time for over five years. With Precision
1752 Insight I now have the opportunity to devote my full attention to advancing Mesa
1753 and OpenGL on Linux.</p>
1754 <p>While I'll be focused on Linux, the X Window System, and hardware acceleration,
1755 my work will continue to be open sourced and available to any other programmers who
1756 may want to contribute to it, or use it for other projects or platforms</p>
1757 <p>PS: I'm going to be traveling until Sep 6 and won't be reading email until then.</p>

1792 <h2>May 13, 1999</h2>
1793 <pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
1794 US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
1795 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
1796 newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
1797
1798 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
1799 improve performance on 3d hardware.  Thanks to Keith's work, many
1800 applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
1801 over Mesa 3.0.  The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
1802 Mesa full time for some time to come.
1803

1805 information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.

1809 This donation from John/id is very generous.  Keith and I are very
1810 grateful.
