		1394	my work will continue to be open sourced and available to any other programmers who
		1395	may want to contribute to it, or use it for other projects or platforms
		1396	PS: I'm going to be traveling until Sep 6 and won't be reading email until then.

		1399	Anonymous CVS access is back online so suck up all the bandwidth you can afford.
		1400	Note that this is a new archive, so you will need to re-checkout the archive. That
		1401	means don't cvs update from a previous download.
		1402

		1404	A report from the SIGGRAPH '99 Linux/OpenGL
		1405	BOF meeting is now available.

		1409	www.mesa3d.org is having
		1410	technical problems due to hardware failures at VA Linux systems. The Mac pages,
		1411	ftp, and CVS services aren't fully restored yet. Please be patient.

		1417	June 2, 1999
		1418	nVidia has released some Linux binaries for
		1419	xfree86 3.3.3.1, along with the full source, which includes GLX acceleration
		1420	based on Mesa 3.0. They can be downloaded from `http://www.nvidia.com/Products.nsf/htmlmedia/software_drivers.html`.
		1421
		1422	May 24, 1999
		1423	Beta 2 of Mesa 3.1 has been make available at `ftp://ftp.mesa3d.org/mesa/beta/`.
		1424	If you are into the quake scene, you may want to try this out, as it contains some
		1425	optimizations specifically in the Q3A rendering path.
		1426
		1427	May 13, 1999
		1428	For those interested in the integration of Mesa into XFree86 4.0, Precision Insight
		1429	has posted their lowlevel design documents at `http://www.precisioninsight.com`.

		1431	May 13, 1999
		1432	May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
		1433	US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
		1434	Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
		1435	newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
		1436
		1437	The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
		1438	improve performance on 3d hardware. Thanks to Keith's work, many
		1439	applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
		1440	over Mesa 3.0. The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
		1441	Mesa full time for some time to come.
		1442
		1443	For more information about Mesa see www.mesa3d.org. For more
		1444	information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.

		1446	--------------------------------
		1447
		1448	This donation from John/id is very generous. Keith and I are very
		1449	grateful.

		1454	John Carmack made an interesting .plan update yesterday:
		1455
		1456	"I put together a document on optimizing OpenGL drivers for Q3 that
		1457	should be helpful to the various Linux 3D teams.
		1458	http://www.quake3arena.com/news/glopt.html"
		1459
		1460
