In Academia we never hear anything from them. My own students are primarily military officers, some of whom are in a position to influence software decisions once they graduate from NPS. At present, the only compiler publisher to keep us abreast of changes involving Ada is AdaCore. We used to hear from DDC-I on a monthly basis, but they seem to have dropped by the wayside. We never hear from any of the other compiler publishers so Ada looks as if it is only GNAT to our organization. At present, there seems to be no organization that promotes Ada. Does the ARA still exist? Oh, yes, there is SigAda, but even they are not pro-active in promoting Ada. If it were not for the efforts of AdaCore, no one would realize that Ada is still a viable language for real projects. We need to find some way to get more visibility for Ada. It seems it will have to be a grass-roots effort since none of the Ada compiler companies has the will, the intiative, the management leadership, nor the imagination to do it.
