I haven't followed the development of Ada/gnat compiler for a > while. The big difference is in the bug fixes (I met some of them in 4.1 and got then fixed moving to 4.3) and some implementation of the Ada standard Library (like you notice the Ada.Calendar.Formating is missing in the 4.1). You can't make a good developpement using AWS in 4.1, I try and move on to 4.3 quickly ... Sebastien
