Absolutely none. 3dfx wants people to write programs on top of
Glide. They just don't want people creating their own versions of
Glide. There's no reason for 3dfx to have anything against Mesa, in
fact, they like Mesa because it gets their boards used.
I'm not going to comment on the rest of their actions. I'm not employed
by them and I don't speak for them.
