The information below is from the Most Recently Asked Questions email that is posted at the beginning of every month. Subject: 3) Where can I obtain Motif? Various hardware vendors produce developer's toolkits of binaries, header files, and documentation; check your hardware vendor, particularly if that vendor is an OSF member. Systems known to be shipping now: HP (sans UIL), Apollo (sans UIL), SCO, ISC, Mips (RISCwindows=X11R3 + full Motif), IBM. In addition, independent binary vendors produce Motif toolkits. ICS makes several binary kits, notably for Sun, DEC, Apple; Quest (408-988-8880) sells kits for Suns, as well; IXI (+44 223 462 131) offers kits for Sun3 (SunOS 3.5 or later, and Sun4 (SunOS 4.0.1 or later). Unipalm XTech (+44 954 211862) offers a binary kit for Sun 4, Sun 3, and Sun 386i. The kits include varied levels of bug-fixing and support for shared libraries. An OSF/Motif source license must be obtained from OSF before source can be obtained from the Open Software Foundation or any value-added vendor. Call the Direct Channels Desk at OSF at 617-621-7300 for ordering information. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- **Note: I tried to answer you the first time, but got rejected.
