You may want to write to report@gnat.com . From my experience as a GPL user, they show always an excellent responsiveness - as long as you describe your issues very accurately, double-check your code examples. Unless your are absolutely sure that X is wrong, you'll better be diplomatic and write things like "I have the impression that X is wrong, as you can see with test code below". Well, as with every bug reporting, isn't it ?... _________________________________________________________ Gautier's Ada programming -- http://sf.net/users/gdemont/ NB: For a direct answer, e-mail address on the Web site!
