  Let's not bash Greenhills they have provided good Ada support over
the years. Ada 2005 updates should be customer driven, let's face it
you can hardly buy a complete C99 compliant compiler 7 years later.

them now.

  as long as they put ANN: or ANNOUNCE in the title instead of
disguising it as a topic I have no problem, in fact I tend to look at
them versus other crap that is posted
