I once offered (and actually started) to work on a FAQ file for the
INFO-ADA/comp.lang.ada group.  Many apologies for not completing this task...
excuses range from "spousal surgery" to "business thrashing."

I am about to begin teaching another "Ada for Programmers" course at Pima
Community College, and will make it a class exercise to construct a file with
FAQs&As.

I am attempting to set up a mail server to automatically respond to requests
for the FAQ file, as well as to accept suggestions for additional information.
This will prevent cluttering up the net with repeated mailings of "the same
old thing."  (If anyone has a good VMS version of such a utility, please send
EMail!)

Thanks for your patience!
