Seems like we should be seeing some results of the "DoD arena" rush to C++ by now. As the data comes in, we should either see that indeed C++ introduced problems and added costs that Ada would have avoided (my expectation), or that it didn't (in which case, time to re-examine assumptions). So, where are the C++ disaster coverups, and/or the shining successes? Mike
