Wasn't MaXXX working on a new build? Did he give those files out for testing?

And if it were cloned, which toolkit would you want to see it using? Would you want an exact copy or a themeable environment (default theme would be an exact copy) that would allow for a more modern look?

Indeed he did say he was working on a new build, and then he promptly disappeared. Again...

I saw a post out of MaXX Interactive Desktop on Facebook recently - so assuming that he's running that page it isn't 100% dead after all.
Well you could knock me over with a compression connector...

Sorry for the lack of updates. My health has been up and down for quite a while, but I think we've figured it out
Updates:
1) HP acquired SGI... I've reopened the discussion and waiting for a reply
2) I retain the rights for MaXX and binaries/installers must come from maxxinteractive.com as of now.
3) Working on new code and looking for c,c++ and Java developers
4) Fedora 25 and Debian8/Ubuntu 16.04 are the supported releases
5) New links (see below)
6) Incremental releases will be the way to go.
7) New release dubbed Onyx is on the work

Correction: Fedora 24 is the version. Too many uncertainties for ABI compatibility, the intro of Wayland as default Windowing System and Python 3.6 (for anything Blender)
vishnu wrote: Eric, I have a couple decades experience with C, C++ and Motif and would be happy to help. Presumably you have the source code to Viewkit as well? Are you using, or did SGI use RapidApp/BXPro for their development? I have BXPro 5-something on my Linux box and on my SGIs, and RapidApp on my SGIs...
I only have binaries from a BXPro version... I am using ViewKlass for MaXX and it does pretty much anything I need it to do. I could tell you more offline

Please send me your contact details via pm
cheers
