Count me in this group, too. Unfortunately, I haven't had the chance to
use Ada on real projects for 7 years now. Since then, I've been using C
and C++. I now teach a C++ course. It's a whole different world. I sure
miss doing Ada. Wish I could get back to it but my employer was purchased
by a C++ "supporter" (AT&T :-), and now I'm stuck "++"ing instead of
tasking.
So, yes, there are *definitely* people out there that like Ada. The best
products don't always sell the most.
