- This is from the comp.windows.x.motif FAQ, which you can get at (from the
- FAQ):
-
- Answer: A number of FAQ's (including this one) are available for anonymous ftp
- at pit-manager.mit.edu, 18.172.1.27 under the directory pub/usenet. (Motif is
- under pub/usenet/comp.windows.x.motif)
-
- Subject: 7)* Where can I get Motif?
-
- An OSF/Motif source license must be obtained from OSF before source can be
- obtained from the Open Software Foundation. Call the Direct Channel Desk at OSF
- at 617-621-7300 or email direct@osf.org for ordering information. In addition
- to the full Motif source, "option C" allows you to purchase source for the
- window manager mwm to run on X terminals.
-
- The basic answer is that since I don't think anyone is selling Motif
- binaries for 386bsd (can anyone correct me on this?) you have to buy a
- source license through OSF. Depending on what you are doing it will
- either be $2000 or $15,000, last I heard.
