I don't much favor rewriting the entire kernel in Ada. If you are going to write a kernel using Ada it seems to me that you would be losing a lot of the advantages of Ada if you use a design that was meant for a language like C. Instead, I think that a completely new kernel designed from the ground-up for Ada would be a much better idea. oops... sorry about the digression. Ada bindings to the RTLinux stuff or even better, implementing an RTLinux like system using Ada seems that it would be a nice idea. Is there any work currently being done in Ada using RTLinux? -- Live Long and Prosper! Robin, Katie, Samuel & Erin Reagan http://home.sprynet.com/~krreagan/ ----------------------"...human error!"
