ada in australia, to the mystery emailer

[G <Dizzy@interact.net.au>]

  Someone asked me about ada in australia and i replied by email.  They
said they saw me write here and then when I got the email back with one
of those little messages to the effect that they did not actually exist
(as that email) I figured something silly was going on.

  I think he said his name was David Riehle and that he would be in
Australia for seminars or something.  He asked if there is much of an
ada 'scene' (not in so many words) in Australia and I though I had
better try and reply through here.

  Answer is, I have no idea.  Going from the newspapers and the
advertisements for jobs in IT sections - I have not seen Ada mentioned
even once.  I know that there are probably a variety of organisation
which do use it here, or teach it at least, but in answer to the man's
question, again- in as much as I know... it isn't big here, but I don't
know much.

OK, so if something went wrong with your email, Mystery mailer - I
replied here as well.
OK
