AdaHome is not maintained even if there is claims that it is. E-mails do not
get answered, people have sent checks to have ads posted that were cashed
(claim made on CLA) yet never placed up, there are more dead links then
alive, and we can keep going.

I didn't undertake The Ada Resource Treasury which later became AdaPower to
replace AdaHome, but saddly, AdaHome has at this point become a site that
damages the Ada community more then it helps by clearly giving it the
apearance of a dead language and a dead community.

It is a shame that Magnus has been unreachable (I haven't tried in the last
year though). It would be better to trim down AdaHome to contents that is
still current and link out to SigAda, AdaIC and AdaPower for more
information. At least then AdaHome would not be damaging us and all the old
links to AdaHome would lead to more up to date sites.
