2032 <pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
2033 US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
2034 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
2035 newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
2036
2037 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
2038 improve performance on 3d hardware.  Thanks to Keith's work, many
2039 applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
2040 over Mesa 3.0.  The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
2041 Mesa full time for some time to come.
