2015 <pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
2016 US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
2017 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
2018 newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
2019
2020 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
2021 improve performance on 3d hardware.  Thanks to Keith's work, many
2022 applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
2023 over Mesa 3.0.  The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
2024 Mesa full time for some time to come.
