A friend of mine has recently ordered this Motif package. This is the first request of the package from outside of Europe, so there is still a money conversion difficulty for the distributor. If you wish to wait a couple days and there is an interest, a follow up on the product can be arranged. -- Standard disclaimers: I am a pack-rat of files like these, but I do not use Motif -- :Sender: usenet@chg.mcd.mot.com (Ron Heiby) :Organization: Motorola Computer Group, Schaumburg, IL : :* OSF/Motif 1.1.2 for 386BSD-0.1 * :* * :* Ported by * :* Enrico Badella * :* Soft*Star s.r.l. * :* Via Camburzano 9 * :* 10143 Torino * :* ITALY * : :OSF/Motif 1.1.2 is finally available for 386BSD-0.1 : :The distribution is BINARY ONLY and is NOT FREE because of OSF licensing :policy and royalty payment scheme. : :The cost of OSF/Motif for 386BSD is $120 + postage.
