I think the CODEPORT forum (the forum for USUS, Inc.) might also support
Ada...although most of the conversation seems to be Modula-2 or Pascal
related. USUS also has a good amount of Ada source code...although those
with 'ftp' access aren't missing anything in terms of Ada. Their source is
not on CIS though, you have to be a member to get it.
 
For info on USUS, leave me e-mail; it's a non-profit group so I don't mind
doing this bit of free advertising, if it is against net-rules though, I'll
not do it anymore.
