Re: Why are Ada libraries so poor and disorganized?

Of course there are gems, but (and this is precisely my point) it is all disorganized!!
And just to clarify, my criticism was not at all directed towards the single contributors who generously give us the code here and there. The actual complaint was about the overall disarray in which the libraries, as a whole, lie. You know, lack of coordination, with libraries scattered all over the internet to the point that almost you don't even know of the existence of a library unless you come across it by chance.
One thing is the lack of uniformity across the styles of the contribution, which is already bad enough, but much worse is the fact that you don't even know whether a piece of code has already been written or not. And please, don't tell me to use Google again, because you know how much a waste of time using a search engine can be, especially when you don't have the exact keywords to search for.

I believe the first step towards a solution would be to make an updated list of all the Ada libraries, with links and a brief description, just so we know that a given piece of code is there!

I am creating a parallel thread on this topic, so that each one of us can contribute to creating this comprehensive list of Ada libraries.

In that thread, please list any Ada library you know, with a brief description.

Thanks
