In response to my claim that the GNAT Project at NYU, which is
implementing an Ada compiler to be part of the FSF distribution, will
include a port to the Macintosh, emagnuso@halcyon.com (Erik Magnuson)
asks:

It may be unlikely, but it's happening.  RMS is working closely with the
NYU folks on GNAT, and NYU is doing nothing without his agreement.  How
Dewar obtained RMS's agreement to the Mac port I don't know; what I do
know is that Dewar reports having obtained it.
