Subject: HOW TO MAKE ADA MORE
Date: 3 Jun 93 23:59:00 GMT [thread overview]

GA. Second, market and evangelize the language.
Ah, but who is going to do this evangelizing? Certainly not the DOD and
it does not appear that the vendors are willing to do so...
GA. And to beat a dead horse, Ada will remain a dead, niche language as
. long as IBM refuses to give it as much attention as it does C++ and
. Smalltalk.
Alas, I do not honestly believe that IBM has any influence on the common
acceptance of any language. Of course, if they were to bundle an Ada
compiler (even GNAT) in with OS/2 like DOS has BASIC, then there might
be a small change...
