Message-ID: <3B970152.4AC6C6E3@PublicPropertySoftware.com> (raw)
For all the commiseration about insufficient interest at large in
Ada, there is a development looming that could possibly remedy that
in a single stroke: the National Missile Defense plan. This is a
system so preposterous that one can only think about doing it with
absurdly great software. Is Ada the way to go for such a grandiose
project? Is anyone lobbying to make Ada the "Official Programming
Language of the NMD"? Why or why not? If the software for this
project gets done primarily in non-Ada, then we can suspect that
Ada's time has passed. If it gets done primarily in Ada, then the
anemia of interest in Ada will be cured instanter by a gross
infusion of pelf.
