Actually, there's nothing to clena in documentation. Motif just isn't
mentioned anywhere anymore. Or is it? http://openjdk.java.net seems also

PEOPLE! If someone has up-to-date document with motif
requirements or something to that effect, (it's not up-to-date document)
please let me know.
Thanks,
-Yuri
