New version of ACES Quick-Look

New version of ACES Quick-Look

[Philip Brashear]

As you may be aware, an important component of the current upgrade of the
Ada Compiler Evaluation System (ACES) is the provision of a Quick-Look
facility that has coverage and ease of use that are comparable to the most
important parts of the PIWG test suite.  When ACES 2.0 is released (in
March of 1995, according to plans), this facility will include a number of
Ada 94-specific tests.

A prototype of the Quick-Look facility is now available on the AJPO host,
and you are invited to try it.  (You are especially invited to make
comments.)  Use anonymous FTP to ajpo.sei.cmu.edu; change directory to
public/aces.  This directory and its subdirectories contain Version 1.0
of the ACES, the prototype Quick-Look, and (at the moment, minimal) other
ACES-related information.  As soon as ACES 1.1 is cleared for public 
release, it will replace Version 1.0.

Comments directed to "perform@ajpo.sei.cmu.edu" will be seen by a growing
group of persons having expressed particular interest in the ACES.  Private
comments may be addressed to "brashepw@adawc.wpafb.af.mil" (Phil Brashear,
contractor program manager) or to "langed@adawc.wpafb.af.mil" (Dale Lange,
Government representative).

Remember, this is a prototype -- its purpose is to generate feedback.
