I would love to see half a dozen Ada programs in the next version of 
SPEC. The "contest" is open until the end of June, and you can actually 
get paid for entering your code.  ACT certainly can submit GNAT, but I 
would love to see some fluid flow or other heavy number floating point 
number cruching software submitted.  If your submission qualifies you 
even get paid.

The rules are at http://www.spec.org/cpu2000/CPU2004/search_program.html

If anyone wants to work with me on a submission, I'll be glad to help. 
If no one is interested I'll probably submit some code I wrote to 
compute the exact significance for some two sample non-parametric tests. 
  (But computers are fast enough now that even with fairly large samples 
the computations are pretty quick.)
