Hallo to Open-XUL-Alliance Founders: I think the term XUL-Motor like the Open-XUL-Alliance uses it is misleading because XUL is Mozillas XML Userinterface Language. So in my opinion Mozilla is a XUL-Motor with XUL for describing GUIs and Gecko as XUL-Generator/ XUL-Renderer. A lot of your Motors doesn't use Mozilla-XUL for GUI description and include its own Generator/ Renderer. For example Xeotrope use XUI and XUI-Framework. But there are also XUL-Generators/ XUL-Renderer like jXUL, jzXUL, Sulu. By the way: XulParser is another XUL-Generator (http://www.rj.pcblaze.com/rlksite/index.php/XUL_Parser) I think you mean with XUL a XML based Userinterface Description in general, but this is a little misleading and bad to handle in literature. If you want to establish the term Motor you have to think about your definition.
