Bound Ada95 RM.. where?

Bound Ada95 RM.. where?

[jeff p drost]

Hey,
  I am currently learning Ada, and not having too much trouble.  I would
however really like to get my hands on a bound copy of the Ada 95 LRM.
I'm using Ada at work, and the company (Lockheed Martin) has a copy of the
old 83 RM, but not the newer 95 version.  Local book stores have been no
help.  Any help locating a printed copy would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jeff Drost

Jeff-
The following is excerpted from the AdaIC's flyer on Ada Language 
Reference Manuals -- 3 sources for bound copies are provided:

"The Ada 95 Standard is found in the Ada 95 Language Reference Manual 
(LRM), accompanied by the Rationale.  These two volumes provide an 
introduction to and background information for each feature of the Ada 
programming language.  They provide an overview of the design team�s 
goals, a summary of the language, and changes made to the 1983 version of 
the standard.

Hard copies of these documents are available from IIT Research Institute 
(IITRI), from the Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC), serving 
military, other Federal government, and defense contractors who are 
registered users of DTIC, and from the National Technical Information 
Service (NTIS), serving the general public.

Both manuals are available as a set for $40 from IITRI.  They are 
professionally printed and bound with a sturdy, soft cover.  To order, 
send a note indicating the number of sets ordered and a check or money 
order for the total amount due, payable to IIT Research Institute, to
	IIT Research Institute
	Attn.:  Judy Hively
	4409 Forbes Blvd.
	Lanham, MD  20706-4211

You must specify the accession number when ordering from either DTIC or 
NTIS:  Language Reference Manual -- AD A293760 [NTIS prices this document 
at $61];  Rationale -- AD A293708 [NTIS prices this document at $52].

Yes - it�s not easy to get a paper version. I need one year to find
a source.

The Home of the Brave Ada Programmers( http://lglwww.epfl.ch/Ada/ )
is always the best place to look for the answers to questions like this.

In particular, the page -
 http://lglwww.epfl.ch/Ada/Resources/References.html#rm95paper
explains how to get printed copies of the Ada 95 LRM and Rationale.
