We expect that Open Motif Everywhere will continuously be updated and enhanced. Consequently, we suggest that you subscribe to the Open Motif Everywhere announcements mailing list. When new releases of Open Motif Everywhere or related software are made available, we'll send you email so that you can download them! Open Motif Everywhere has been tested on over 12 different combinations Linux distributions and hardware platforms (Intel, Alpha, PPC, and Sparc). If you need Open Motif Everywhere on a different Linux distribution and/or hardware, we encourage you to visit the MotifZone, the center for open source developers extending Open Motif for the Linux environment. At the MotifZone, you can download the Motif for the platform you need for free. If the platform is not supported yet, why wait? Download the source (also for free!) and compile it yourself! While at the MotifZone, take time to explore some of the resources it offers. We have stocked the MotifZone with a variety of key reference articles and manuals, created the most comprehensive list of links available anywhere for Motif related open source software, hosted an online magazine, The Motif Developer, and even created a variety of discussion forums where you can ask (or provide!) help on Motif related subjects. Make sure that you explore the Motif Bazaar area while you are visiting the MotifZone. This is the roadmap to the open source projects currently underway that will shape the version of Open Motif Everywhere you will use tomorrow! Maybe you have an idea, or want to make your own enhancement? We'll be glad to host your project! Check the MotifZone for further details.

ICS has a long history with Motif, perhaps longer than any other commercial company in business today. Prior to Sun adopting Motif, ICS shipped more copies of Motif for Sun workstations than any other independent supplier. We have an extensive set of Motif GUI tools, including the industry's leading GUI builder, Builder Xcessory PRO. As an user of Motif, you might also be interested to know that ICS is the Motif front line support organization for The Open Group. Until now, you could only contact us for support if you were a Motif source code licensee. Otherwise, you contacted your computer system supplier, worked your way through their support process, and then finally, they called us! Today, if you are interested in purchasing support for Open Motif Everywhere, we can provide it directly to you and avoid the middleman. If you are interested, please send email to info@ics.com and we'll send you details. Alternatively, you can visit our corporate web site www.ics.com and review our offerings online. ICS also offers consulting services for companies that require Motif and X engineering expertise. Please send email to info@ics.com with your requirements.
