As for the applications that depend on motif, I say we do the following:

1) Announce that openmotif will be dropped in X days, weeks.
2) Provide information o lesstif as the alternative.
3) Maintainers of packages that have motif dependencies have the same X
days, or weeks to fix their applications to work with lesstif
4) Drop openmotif after the time period has elapsed
5) Deal with any unfixed packages at that time.

I like this plan a lot. It sets deadlines and expectations properly. openmotif just needs to go away.

So who can make said announcement?

I can be play the bad-cop here. Question is, how long of a deadline for step 1? Is 2 weeks enough?
