That's the point. I receive tons of posts from Instructables, and several other DIY sites with applications for Arduino, Boarduino, and other AVR models every day, and almost all that I look inside could be improved if developers could use Ada instead of C from scratch.
I got to build AVR-Ada recently for an 8-bit AVR, but sadly discovered that the tasking feature was not enabled yet. Anyway, it looks that we can program AVR in Ada also using RTEMS (which I began to try), but AVR-Ada looks easier to coding, so I'd prefer to use AVR-Ada (at least until I don't get to build with RTEMS)

That's it.
