Greetings, folks
	
	We've been having some discussion in the office regarding
	conversion to Ada from "other" languages.  We've heard in the
	folklore of computing that somewhere there is a government
	regulation or guideline which states in effect that when you
	must modify more than 30% of the SLOCs in a module, you must
	re-write it in Ada.  Can anyone validate/substantiate/repudiate
	this data point or give me some leaders on where to pursue it
	further?  I would be most appreciative.

Thanks in advance

OPINION?  You mean my employer will let me have an opinion?
