No settlement or discussions with 'The Open Group' has happened. I am just trying to be kind and forgiving in a world of where those traits seem rare.
On the other hand, I agree that it *really* takes a leap of the imagination to find a group that charges very high membership fees, fees for standards documents, sells no true commercial product, fights to make it hard for all 'real' unix people, and attempts to reverse-hijack Internet domains as "OPEN".....
However, I am willing to forgive them. Ghandi said something like "An eye for an eye and the world is blind." ........
However, if everyone objects, I will remove the link, or perhaps remove the top level category?
If it is really offensive to the users, I will consider removing it from the top level, etc. I'm open to suggestions.

mbk_work_lib
MBK_WORK_LIB(1) MBK ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES MBK_WORK_LIB(1)
NAME
MBK_WORK_LIB - define the mbk working directory
SYNOPSYS
c-shell running
setenv MBK_WORK_LIB unix path
ORIGIN
This software belongs to the ALLIANCE CAD SYSTEM developed by the ASIM team at LIP6 laboratory of Universite Pierre et Marie CURIE, in
Paris, France.
Web : http://asim.lip6.fr/recherche/alliance/
E-mail : alliance-users@asim.lip6.fr
DESCRIPTION
MBK_WORK_LIB sets the directory where are saved the results of an invocation of mbk or genlib. This directory is considered to be, from an
mbk point of view, read and write.
Also, when a file is searched for reading, the first directory to be looked at is the MBK_WORK_LIB, and then the one defined in
MBK_CATA_LIB(1).
The unix path argument must be a actually accessible path on your host machine.
ERRORS
"mbk_fopen : can't open file 'unix_path/file.xx'"
This occurs when either the unix path is irrelevent, or when the file doesn't exist if it is open for reading, or when you don't
have the right on the file or directory while trying to write it.
EXAMPLE
setenv MBK_WORK_LIB ~fred/crechan/uom
SEE ALSO
mbk(3), genlib(1), MBK_CATA_LIB(1).
