[comp.windows.x] OFS Motif licensing hassle

jh@tut.fi (Hein{nen Juha) (11/06/89)

Recently I filled the Motif license agreement papers and mailed them
along with a check of $1000 to OSF in Germany.  Yesterday the
agreements were returned and I was asked to fill other ones this time
for educational institutions.  

The educational agreement didn't seem to allow us to redistribute
Motif binaries by paying $40 each to OSF as the regular one seemed to
do.  So is OSF now trying to say to us that because you are a
university you don't have any rights but still have to pay the same
$1000 as anybody else?

Is OSF Germany messing things up or is the OSF Motif policy really so
stupid?
