Nice article about XP with Ada.

I met with Kent Beck last week and asked him if he knew of anyone using XP
with
Ada.  He didn't, but would be very interested in hearing of it.   Also met
with Martin
Fowler and asked him about it.  As with most mainstream programmers, he
knows
very little about Ada.   In fact, I still get the, "Is anyone still using
Ada?" question from
lots of well-known authorties on modern programming practice.   Sigh ......

If someone is using XP and Ada for a serious project, I suggest they compose
a good
paper/article for publication describing their experience.   It would get
some attention if
can be published in one of the popular journals.
