The WAdaS conference is over. . . I can try to get
back to work now. . . or play as it may be.
I would like to get started on some work with
Portable Ada Foundation Classes. If any of you
have looked at the WWW site, you know it hasn't
been updated for a while.
Here is what I request from the Ada community.
1. What do you need from foundation classes.
Consider the microsoft foundation classes. But,
consider that they need to be portable. Consider
the Java API's. What if they were implemented on
every platform. Consider "automatic" object
distribution. Consider having CORBA written into
the language. With a specification in the front
that would allow the implementation to change over
time.
What I'm asking is: If you were given Ada
foundation classes today, what would your
requirements be? Please be as specific as
possible. Please reply to bremmon@acm.org.
2. Who wants to help? I know I've had volunteers
in the past. Please notify me again if you
volunteered.
3. Is it worthy of a working group? This is a
question for SIGada. Similar to the annexes, we
could separate the classes as it made sense.
Please let me know,
Chad (bremmon@acm.org)
