Hmm, I haven't checked the Ada Homepage lately, but I suppose the
Rationale is indeed there.  In any case, the WWW homepage is:
	http://lglwww.epfl.ch/Ada/   (don't forget the last /)
Also, you can ftp the Rationale from:
	ajpo.sei.cmu.edu, look under public/ada9x/rm9x/v5.0
(I think there's a v5.7 dir, but I don't remember if the Rationale is
there)
