Has anyone contacted openmotif about this? Any plans to do so? I'm of the opinion we should at least give them a chance to make things right before yanking this from the distribution.

Noone I know has contacted openmotif on behalf of Fedora. I am skeptical of this after all this time since the FAQ was published but it has been suggested before and if you want to take a stab at it, please go ahead.

OK, I'll give it shot.

done, though someone (thanks giallu), beat me to the punch:

So, if openmotif doesn't change their licensing soon, who can/will pull the trigger to remove openmotif from Fedora?

IMO, it would be better to remove it sooner rather than later (who knows, maybe that'll speed the relicensing effort).

Since we have a number of dependencies, moving into Fedora Extras as a intermediate step would be better than just dropping it.
