That's quite possible, but I also know that MetroWerks was being
courted heavily to do an Ada95 implementation several months ago.  I
have the impression that they, like most other compiler companies,
would support the language if they felt the market was there.  Kind
of a chicken vs. egg problem :-/

      Frustrated with C, C++, Pascal, Fortran?  Ada95 _might_ be for you!
	  For all sorts of interesting Ada95 tidbits, run the command:
"finger dweller@starbase.neosoft.com | more" (or e-mail with "finger" as subj.)
		if u cn rd ths, u r gd enuf to chg to Ada   :-)
