We are now in the process of creating a second edition and are soliciting feedback from those who have had the opportunity to read or use these guidelines. Specifically, indicate any guidelines that you believe are too specific/vague, wrong, missing, or have been difficult to apply. Also mention any additional topics regarding Ada usage that you think should be addressed. When providing comments, please be as specific as possible. If relevant, reference the related topic/section/guideline. Also provide any materials that might clarify each point, such as examples, etc. We are especially interested in comments on guidelines for reuse and portability. For reuse, the guidelines will address the construction of library units that require minimal or no modification for reuse. For portability, the guidelines will minimize the impact on code due to any change in environment. Even if you haven't read the book, we are interested in any guidelines that you have found to be useful. Responses can be mailed or e-mailed. If there is interest, a summary of the responses will be posted to this news group. Lisa Simmons simmons@software.org Software Productivity Consortium 2214 Rock Hill Rd. Herndon, VA 22070
