Message-ID: <1993Jun9.092427.8077@sei.cmu.edu> List-Id: mfeldman@seas.gwu.edu (Michael Feldman) has offered us a position paper on Ada in education, for presentation ad WAdaS. An excellent position paper! Two points: 1. Participation in the U/I process was by competitive procurement. As I remember, bidders were to be teams with a compiler vendor and an experienced Ada user. Although the intent was benign enough, I agree that the effect was to rule out academic participation. 2. Academics, as well as all others, are welcome to participate in the Volunteer Reviewer Program. Indeed, there are quite a few academic participants, both in this country and overseas.
