 ** This is a repost of my request when I realized that I 
 ** didn't include my email address. Sorry about that.

Currently I am doing a survey on various toolkits to
determine the commonalities and differences among them in
terms of funtionality, feature, architecture, etc. in the
hope of answering some of the following questions:
  1) What are the differences among these toolkits?;
  2) Is there an ideal toolkit for a particular application?;
  3) The pros and cons of each toolkit.
  4) How does one go about selecting a toolkit?
   ... 
In particular, I am interested in Open Dialog from Apollo, 
DecWindows, OSF/Motif, Open Look, NDE, and any other toolkits
which I am not aware of. WHEN I AM DONE, MY FINDINGS WILL BE
RELEASED TO THE PUBLIC. HENCE, I HOPE YOU GUYS OUT THERE WILL
HELP ME OUT BY SENDING ME ANY RELEVANT INFO REGARDING THESE
TOOLKITS. I BELIEVE MANY OF US WILL BENEFIT FROM THIS SURVEY.
   THANKS IN ADVANCE.
