Put me down for Xt/Motif and Xt/Athena. What do I have to write, and
by when?

Also, section 1 mis-states my position:

	12 Glynn Clements Opinion:
[snip]
	Proposal:

	(a) use wxWindows since it uses the native platform and thus
	adheres to the native look and feel

I wasn't suggesting using wxWindows itself. Rather, I was suggesting
using the same approach, i.e. a common "veneer" on top of native
widgets (as opposed to actually implementing the widgets in Haskell).
