I am co-authoring an article for "Sun Observer" that compares the two GUIs. Note: despite the magazine's name, *I* do not take political sides and will not slant the article in favor of Motif or OpenLook. The article is slated for a December issue. > Is the merger still planed? hee hee.. > And when will it be done?

I authored an API comparison (Motif vs. AT&Ts OL implementation) for OSF which was presented to IEEE P1201 and so is presumbably publicly available, although I'm not sure where. I don't have copies I can make available myself. -kee Alphalpha Software, Inc. | motif-request@alphalpha.com nazgul@alphalpha.com |----------------------------------- 617/646-7703 (voice/fax) | Proline BBS: 617/641-3722 I'm not sure which upsets me more; that people are so unwilling to accept responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate everyone else's. -------

We publish "OSF/Motif -- The Graphical User Interface for Open Systems", a 13-page brochure that compares OSF/Motif with other GUIs. You may detect a bias :-). For copies call OSF Direct at +1(617)621-7300. direct@osf.org stands a good chance also. |> Is the merger still planned? |> And when will it be done?
