I have enough technical difficulties with my code that I want to avoid distractions of that type. In the later stages, these will include concurrent processing of user selections. Right now I need Web access. I've also used the previous instantiation of CGI for Ada, which I think David Button provided. That would be fine and is actually neater than the new GNAT library - particularly since I can reuse code from previous iterations at this problem. [Sedgwick's book on Algorithms, Ed. 4, comments that changes to systems should avoid introducing changes to existing contracts with the users. The new GNAT libraries certainly violate that part of the contract.] I'm also aware of AWS - and would be tempted to use that if I were developing on my Ubuntu Linux machine. I'd like to get over the basic working of my algorithms before I make that transition. Again, it's the time sink of learning new interfaces when the real problems lie in the algorithms themselves.
