 |2nd point : I heard a rumour that the OL version of frame would be NeWS-based.
 |(i.e. not X-based) I don't know whether this is true...

Absolutely true, it's written for the NeWS side of OpenWindows.  
It is just at the alpha stage now, and we hope to do alpha testing.  
It walks & quacks like FrameMaker, only it IS written for OL, so you 
have all the civilities like like obvious ways to dismiss dialog 
boxes.

OL FrameMaker was shown both at Seybold and at COMDEX - at COMDEX it
was in the Sun booth.  

Now, when I get FrameMaker running on my SPARCclone laptop (also shown 
in the Sun booth .. one version is IPC compatible and runs OpenWindows, 
unlike the other clones ..
