[comp.windows.x.motif] Motif with XR5

cliff@norisc.UUCP (Clifford Luke) (06/26/91)

Just a quickie!

    Will the current Motif sources (1.1.2) require modification in order
    to compile and run with  release 5 of the  X-Window System (which is
    scheduled for Sept/Oct 91)?

ThanX
     Cliff

At the Motif BOF at Xhibition '91, the same question was asked.  Vania 
Joloboff and Daniel Dardailler, both of the OSF Motif Support Group 
confirmed that Motif 1.1.x will work with X11R5.  Donna Converse, who was 
also there, confirmed that the Xt spec is unchanged, and that 1.1.x should 
work with R5 for that reason alone.

Since I speak for no-one, including myself, the above comes with the usual 
disclaimer: Caveat Emptor.  Maybe you'll hear from some or all of the parties 
I mentioned above.

No flashy sig. No clever quips. No famous quotes. This space for rent.

Who's saying Sept/Oct 91?  Just three weeks ago, at Xhibition, the official
word was "no comment."
