It's a pretty sad state of affairs when you are reduced to trying
to force people to use Ada at the point of a gun. And of course
that *was* tried with the govenrnment mandate and it failed.
I also point out to you that when your house is broken into or your
car is stolen, you're not going to have any luck suing the makers
of the locks.
If I was sued becuase I didn't use Ada, I would point out to the
jury the results of using Ada on the Ariane 5. You may think it's
unfair, but, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, my worthy opponent
wants my client to use software which demonstrably resulted in
millions of dollars of damage and loss.
