When I last used the language it was dying a slow death because the mainstream computing world hadn't took to it as was expected. Is the use of Ada still common only to Defence and Aerospace applications ? What has happened about Ada 9X ? and what are the prospects for future development. OK the real question is "Is this a good career move ?" John Ball
