Hello,
Does anyone know anything about OSF/Motif ?
We are acquiring some Apollos and want to
use Motif on them.  Thanks in advance

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have the following questions concerning OSF/Motif:

- Does anyone know where to get the specifications of OSF/Motif, I mean the
  functional specifications, like "Look-and-Feel" etc.

- When will OSF/Motif be released ?

- I heard that it will be derived from Digital's DECwindows, Microsoft's
  Presentation Manager and HP's Open Look. What parts of these user
  interfaces will be used ?

- Will there be a version of Apollo's Open Dialogue with the "Look-and-Feel"
  of OSF/Motif, or where can I get information about that ?

- Is there a mailing-list to which I can subscribe, with all new updates
  about OSF/Motif ?

I would appreciate any useful information about this subject

You can order Motif by calling OSF at +1-617-621-8755 or write to:

Open Software Foundation
Attn: Motif Information
11 Cambridge Center
Cambridge, MA 02142
U.S.A.

Source code licenses are $1000 including manuals.  There are various
smaller prices for manuals only or binary licenses.  You do not have to
be an OSF member to order.
