Me either. I would like to see the mailing list become more active. It
was for a while then it completely died. Even using the commands in the
original response I received from the list server when I joined don't
work. Except for sending mesages to the list, the list server seems to
be under the impression it's not handling that list any more.

I would prefer to see independant development of ada-mode. I don't like
the way that ACT have taken the menu out of the main ada-mode.el file
and included all the sub-menus as part of their 'enhancements'. It ties
it even more to GNAT which I believe is a bad thing.
