I case anyone is being misled by the repeated references to Ada's
"750 problems", these are the unfiltered "problems" submitted during
the 9X comment period. There is much duplication and overlapping among
them. For example, one subject that I'm particularly interested in is
the subject of approximately 10 of these revision requests. Others can
be questioned as to their appropriateness, such as a request for a
standard way to access command line parameters. (Not all operating
systems use command line parameters.) In short, after allowing the
world to submit revision requests for Ada-9X, the number of actual
issues that resulted is substantially less than 750.
