We have a scientific application involving computation and the graphical
display of the resulting 3D fields.  This is currently running on an IBM
RS/6000 using Motif for window management and Silicon Graphics' GL for 3D
graphics.

We are looking for any suggestions for the preferred means of porting this
to a Sun Sparcstation 2.

e. g. Is there a GL compatible graphics library for the Sparc?  We would
prefer not to use PHIGS. Is there a Motif yet available anywhere for Sun
Sparcs? If not, would it be difficult or complicated to move it to the
Open Look window manager?

I would prefer E-mail response, but posting is OK if you think this is
useful for the net.
