2232 and <code>MesaDemos-3.1beta3.tar.gz</code>,
2233 that seem to be... yes, I've just received confirmation from the beta center, they
2234 are indeed the <b>THIRD</b> beta release of Mesa 3.1! Happy Days. Happy Days. Thanks

2238 <p>I'm pleased to announce that I've accepted a position with Precision Insight,
2239 Inc. effective October, 1999. I'll be leaving Avid Technology in September.</p>
2240 <p>I've been working on Mesa in my spare time for over five years. With Precision
2241 Insight I now have the opportunity to devote my full attention to advancing Mesa
2242 and OpenGL on Linux.</p>
2243 <p>While I'll be focused on Linux, the X Window System, and hardware acceleration,
2244 my work will continue to be open sourced and available to any other programmers who
2245 may want to contribute to it, or use it for other projects or platforms</p>
2246 <p>PS: I'm going to be traveling until Sep 6 and won't be reading email until then.</p>

2281 <h2>May 13, 1999</h2>
2282 <pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
2283 US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
2284 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
2285 newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
2286
2287 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
2288 improve performance on 3d hardware.  Thanks to Keith's work, many
2289 applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
2290 over Mesa 3.0.  The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
2291 Mesa full time for some time to come.
2292

2294 information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.

2298 This donation from John/id is very generous.  Keith and I are very
2299 grateful.
