One thing I think would be useful would be to develop an Ada programming kit for some small, inexpensive, popular SBC. Start with the Gnat compiler and pull together other open source resources and build a cross-compilation package that can compile, link, load and execute a simple Ada program on the SBC. If you can get something to start ticking inside an embedded box, that's 90% of the battle and ought to prove you're serious about it. MDC Luke A.
