The french magazine "Programmez" has from time to time an article or a resource
about Ada - due to the efforts of J-P Rosen I think. On a recent issue I've
seen in the nearby supermarket there was on the cover something like
"CD includes... GNATS 3.2, the ADA compiler for Linux" :-).
Someone succeeded to write an article in Dr Dobbs about Ada, games, tasking ->
http://www.beesknees.freeserve.co.uk/articles/gnat.html
But these are isolated examples of course. Beside articles, a good way can be
to informatively (not religiously) advertise on other newsgroups. If you
type as keywords even basic Ada features (inline, generic, default parameter...)
on http://www.deja.com/usenet/ you'll be surprised how people wish them for
their common programming and they will be surprised that these features exist
in Ada for long...
