I'm convinced now that Ada is quite mature technology with lots of stuff behind it, although there is no (S)uper (U)niversal (N)etwork of resellers nor any (M)ajor (S)oftware company like (I)nnocent (B)ig (M)anufacturer, that would shove big bucks into its development. They'd rather play fool with their own, non-standard toys. Many of my colleagues haven't heard about Ada and it's a vain effort to find something about it in our bookshops. Not mentioning the employers. But I'll keep learning and playing with it, there has to be some reason why big and critical systems are built in Ada, right?
