Acknowledgments

+ + +The following individuals and groups are to be acknowledged for their +contributions to Mesa over the years. + + +

Early Mesa development was done while Brian was part of the +SSEC Visualization Project at the University of +Wisconsin. He'd like to thank Bill Hibbard for letting him work on +Mesa as part of that project. +
+
+
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. +
+
+
Precision Insight, Inc., VA Linux Systems, Inc., and most recently, +Tungsten Graphics, Inc. have supported the ongoing development of Mesa. +
+
+
The Mesa +project is hosted by +
+
+ +
alt.software contributed the Direct3D driver. + +
Bernd Barsuhn wrote the evaluator code for (splines, +patches) in Mesa. + +
Bernhard Tschirren wrote the Allegro DJGPP driver. + +
Bogdan Sikorski wrote the GLU NURBS and polygon tessellator +in Mesa. + +
Charlie Wallace wrote the MS-DOS driver. + +
CJ Beyer was the www.mesa3d.org webmaster. + +
Darren Abbott provided the OS/2 driver. + +
David Bucciarelli wrote and maintained the 3Dfx Glide +driver. Thousands of Linux/Quake players thank David! + +
Gareth Hughes wrote new GLU 1.2 Polygon Tessellation code +(now superceded by SGI SI GLU). + +
Holger Waechtler contributed AMD 3DNow! assembly code which +accelerates vertex transformation in Mesa 3.1. Holger also implemented +the GL_EXT_texture_env_combine extension. + +
Jeroen van der Zijp and Thorsten Ohl contributed the +Xt/Motif widget code. + +
John Stone provided the multi-threading support in Mesa 3.0. + +
John Watson assisted with web page design. + +

Jouk Jansen contributed and continues to maintain the VMS +support. + +
Karl Schultz has been maintaining the Windows driver. + +
Keith Whitwell has made extension contributions to Mesa +since 1999. + +
Kendall Bennett wrote the SciTech MGL driver. + +
Klaus Niederkrueger contributed many improvements to Mesa's +software rasterizer. + +
Mark Kilgard contributed antialiased line improvements and +several extensions. + +
Michael Pichler contributed many bug fixes + +
Miklos Fazekas wrote and maintains the Macintosh driver. + +
Pascal Thibaudeau wrote the NeXT driver. + +
Pedro Vazquez setup and maintains the Mesa Mailing list. + +
Randy Frank contributed many bug fixes. + +
Stefan Zivkovic wrote the Amiga driver. + +
Stephane Rehel provided the Cygnus Win32 support + +
Ted Jump maintained the +makefiles and project files for Windows 95/98/NT compilation for some time. + +
