Holy smokes!!!!  Is it just me folks, or does the statement above imply that 
(a) Ada 9X has already been designed, and (b) it *does not*  provide upward
compatibility for Ada 83 programs?

Obviously, just following this newsgroup is not enough to keep ones self
"in the know" regarding the current state of the Ada 9X deliberations!

Somebody please reduce my ignorance level and tell me what parts of Ada 83
have already been declared to be obsolete.  Tasking?  Fixed-point?
Could somebody maybe post a list?
