I've seen some things about the Ada 9X project, but don't know
what it is doing. Is it defining extensions to the language?
IN particular, I am interested in the probablility of Ada
supporting inheritance (ala C++) in the future.
-Thanks

There is a public requirements document for Ada 9X. This
document suggests that the revised language should support
programming by specialization/generalization.
This is generally interpreted as being equivalent to
inheritance and polymorphism ala C++.
There will be a public release of the first draft
of actual language change proposals within the
next few months, so stay tuned...
