[snip] : But, there would be a market for tools and methodologies that support the : creation of safety-critical software. Perhaps this is what was meant. A good chunk of the Ada tool market is for safety-critical software, and so are parts of the realtime market (trusted kernels and such, e.g. DO-178B certification).
