Some recent upstream from AdaCore gcc/ada: https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=history;f=gcc/ada
I may not agree with AdaCore's making a Shareware GNAT, because it harms potential use of Ada in markets they don't even start to understand, but they do good work and a lot of it.
I would like them for the benefit of Ada in all markets to consider other approaches as I presented to them. However if they don't my plan is to drive the GNAT-FSF compilers into those markets as the _Professional_ compilers they are. Which ultimately will still net them the "big fish" in those markets.
AdaCore is not "costing" on the results of the government funds if giving back to the FSF, only being very shortsighted.
