- Are you supposing that Ada has ever been a main stream language ?

- In the software world, it is no problem to miss some trains, there
   is always a new train after. If needed, you can invent the train
   yourself, do a good marketing and pretend it is the first train
   ever. Ask Bill Gates for some success stories in that respect!
