Motif is a closed source product produced by The Open Group. However, The Open Group released Open Motif on 2000-05-15 under a public license, The Open Group Public License, that allows Open Motif to be distributed with and used on Open Source platforms. As of 2001-07-10, Cygwin/X does not qualify as a platform that Open Motif can be distributed with and used on.

For now this is as close as to Open Source as we could get.
