The list of validated Ada compilers has the following four entries for IBM
mainframes running CMS.  We would appreciate receiving opinions on quality,
cost, support, extra tools, etc., of users of one (or more) of these compilers.

The most important point for us is that the Ada system would be used for student
exercises (roughly 150 students, max. 30-40 compilations at the same time).

Thanks in advance.
