1660 and <code>MesaDemos-3.1beta3.tar.gz</code>,
1661 that seem to be... yes, I've just received confirmation from the beta center, they
1662 are indeed the <b>THIRD</b> beta release of Mesa 3.1! Happy Days. Happy Days. Thanks

1666 <p>I'm pleased to announce that I've accepted a position with Precision Insight,
1667 Inc. effective October, 1999. I'll be leaving Avid Technology in September.</p>
1668 <p>I've been working on Mesa in my spare time for over five years. With Precision
1669 Insight I now have the opportunity to devote my full attention to advancing Mesa
1670 and OpenGL on Linux.</p>
1671 <p>While I'll be focused on Linux, the X Window System, and hardware acceleration,
1672 my work will continue to be open sourced and available to any other programmers who
1673 may want to contribute to it, or use it for other projects or platforms</p>
1674 <p>PS: I'm going to be traveling until Sep 6 and won't be reading email until then.</p>

1702 If you are into the quake scene, you may want to try this out, as it contains some
1703 optimizations specifically in the Q3A rendering path.

1709 <h2>May 13, 1999</h2>
1710 <pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
1711 US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
1712 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
1713 newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
1714
1715 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
1716 improve performance on 3d hardware.  Thanks to Keith's work, many
1717 applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
1718 over Mesa 3.0.  The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
1719 Mesa full time for some time to come.
1720

1722 information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.
