We're still shipping libXol and the XView libraries - Motif will
definitely long outlive them. (Given the Studio tools still
include a Motif GUI design tool, Motif is pretty much still actively
used.)
And Java is also a consumer of Motif. IMHO for the longer term one
of the opensource Motif clones like LessTif or OpenMotif should be
looked at.
I've suggested OpenMotif multiple times to the Desktop C-Team, but
because it would involve assigning people to work on Motif and clearing
up the OpenMotif licensing issues, I've not succeeded in convincing anyone.
