Not sure of its current status, but given the need for Motif is now very
low, I would imagine it's not too active.

The other thing to point out is that the real Motif toolkit was opened
up with the relicensing of CDE. There was some initial activity to make
it build and run on modern systems, but not sure what the current state
of some things are, e.g. client-side fonts and unicode (was previously
old-style XLFD and no unicode). So the need for lesstif is now moot,
unless there are lesstif bits to merge into motif.
