+<h1>Acknowledgements</h1>
The following individuals and groups are to be acknowledged for their
contributions to Mesa over the years.
+This list is far from complete and somewhat dated, unfortunately.

<li>John Carmack of id Software, Inc. funded Keith Whitwell in 1999 in
order to optimize Mesa's vertex transformation module. This is a very
substantial piece of work.
