Ada training in the UK

Ada training in the UK

[Tim ffrench-Lynch]

Does anyone know of any Ada training courses in the UK over the next
month or so? Ideally in London but anywhere in the UK is a
possibility.

Whilst the person requiring training will be using Gnat 3.15p/Adagide
(and probably later the full Gnat Professional system), the code is
entirely Ada 83 converted from Vax Ada to Gnat and already running
well.

Would it be better to train him in Ada 95 or Ada 83?

Ada95! It's going through a 95 compiler, so that's the semantics you'll 
get. If you need to now the differences there was an "official" 
Ada83/Ada95 differences paper produced circa '95.

Are you at CT/Roch/other?

It probably is best to go for Ada 95, it may spend time on features
that aren't currently used on this project but any such course is
likely to use Gnat and will be much more available.
