Dear Friends of Ada:

I am pleased to announce that Ada is now an international
standard.  On March 12, 1987, the Central Secretariat of the
International Standards Organization (ISO) announced unanimous
approval of the Draft International Standard (DIS) 8652 -
Programming Language Ada.  The standard will be known as
ISO/8652-1987 Programming Languages - Ada, and will be published
as a one page endorsement of the American and French Ada
standards, ANSI Standard 1815A-1983 and AFNOR Standard NF Z
65-700, respectively.

I would like to thank all of those who initially contributed to
the development of ANSI/MIL-STD-1815A and to congratualate all
those who helped to make its endorsement as an international
standard a reality.

Virginia L. Castor (Director, AJPO)
