Do people write servers in Ada, or clients, or libraries? I note a lack of things like XML, MIME, base64, etc on AdaPower. If I started building such libraries, would anyone care? Would anyone use them? Just wondering... (FWIW, I'm good at internet stuff, and a novice at Ada, but I think I'd like Ada a lot.) -- Darren New San Diego, CA, USA (PST). Cryptokeys on demand.
