I think we'd need to see the actual proposed changes and understand the
implications
for ongoing support as we no longer support any platform which has a CDE
desktop.
Solaris 11.3 uses Gnome, so we'd be more inclined to be ripping out such
support rather
than adding to it.

Hello,
IBM would like to contribute AIX's CDE (Common Desktop Environment)
DTWM (Desktop Window Manager) /MWM (Motif Window Manager) support to
OpenJDK project.
I'd like contribute following 5 files:
M src/java.desktop/share/classes/sun/font/FontUtilities.java
(Add isAIX flag to determine AIX platform for GUI environment)
M src/java.desktop/unix/classes/sun/awt/X11/MotifColorUtilities.java
(Add High Color support on CDE, OpenJDK just supports Medium Color) [1]
M src/java.desktop/unix/classes/sun/awt/X11/XDecoratedPeer.java
(Avoid miss calculation for window position under DTWM/MWM by
XMapRaised/XMapWindow)
M src/java.desktop/unix/classes/sun/awt/X11/XWM.java
(Detect MWM on AIX platform)
M src/java.desktop/unix/classes/sun/awt/X11/XWindowPeer.java
(Add non-focusable window support on DTWM/MWM for AIX, because
DTWM/MWM does not have enough features for ICCCM)
I appreciate any feedback please, and how I would go about obtaining a
sponsor and contributor ?
Thanks,
