There are a couple of vendors that sell numerics libraries, but darned if I recall their names at the moment. That being said, you may want to just reuse your Fortran libraries until one in Ada comes out. Ada's well-defined interface into Fortran makes is possible to keep your previous investment in (and knowledge about) the Fortran libraries. I'd like to believe there will be a free, Ada-based BLAS and LAPACK available within the year. ANybody else with an opinion? :-) -- Frustrated with C, C++, Pascal, Fortran? Ada95 _might_ be for you!
