motif has been released as Open Source Software Under LGPL v2.1


Motif has been released as Open Source Software Under LGPL v2.1.

Code is at sourceforge.net.

Slackware might use this in stead of lesstif.

I only know xpdf is using it right now in the stock distribution.

I actually liked motif way back when... then as I recall they tried some heavy handed licensing tactics (or maybe I just became aware of their licensing... foggy memory). In any event, they basically lost all their market/users.

At this point they probably seem like the new kid on the block instead of the former leader, but I'll take a look!
