2045 <pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
2046 US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
2047 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
2048 newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
2049
2050 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
2051 improve performance on 3d hardware.  Thanks to Keith's work, many
2052 applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
2053 over Mesa 3.0.  The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
2054 Mesa full time for some time to come.
