+ + +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 is the +www.mesa3d.org webmaster. + +
Darren Abbott provided the OS/2 driver. + +
David Bucciarelli wrote and +maintains 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Gareth Hughes wrote new GLU +1.2 Polygon Tessellation code (now superceded by SGI SI GLU).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. + +
Josh Vanderhoof +contributed Intel x86 assembly code which accelerates vertex +transformation in Mesa 3.x. + +
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. + +
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. + +
