The R6, R7, R8 indicate which collection of packages will work together. The need for such distinction comes largely from "hidden" compiler library which is needed to compile ASIS, GLADE and the GPS. Sadly AdaCore claims it is not possible to create a proper library for use with ASIS, GLADE and the GPS. Only Ludovic has proven long ago that this is not true.
