Re: Ada Component Registry proposal

[Marin David Condic <nobody@noplace.com>]

"No" - what? Not clear. "No, there isn't a file system interface"? "No, 
there isn't a container library"? There was talk of having some ability 
to access directories and files via some standard Ada package, so I know 
that was discussed. Not planned?

If the ARG is not planning to add a container library, would they like 
to see one as the first priority? Any problem with the ones that already 
exist? (Id est, let's not go build yet another container library and do 
the same things that made existing ones unattractive...)

     then crashes and reboots. By design, no less. Neo is just a

     sedated"
