+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.
+
+
+<ul>
+<li>Early Mesa development was done while Brian was part of the
+<A HREF="http://www.ssec.wisc.edu/~billh/vis.html"
+target="_parent">SSEC Visualization Project</A> at the University of
+Wisconsin. He'd like to thank Bill Hibbard for letting him work on
+Mesa as part of that project.
+<br>
+<br>
+<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.
+<br>
+<br>
+<li>Precision Insight, Inc., VA Linux Systems, Inc., and most recently,
+Tungsten Graphics, Inc. have supported the ongoing development of Mesa.
+<br>
+<br>
+<li>The
+<A HREF="http://sourceforge.net/projects/mesa3d" target="_parent">Mesa</A>
+website is hosted by
