Disagree in every respect. I've personally used Alsys Ada in its previous incarnations for nearly 10 years, and it's always been one of the very best. HCI could be greatly improved in the early versions, but the latest $99 special does that. The last time I used the product was to make an AI system in Australia, which was then ported to Dec-Ada and the Einterstein compiler for the 690x0 without a single change. This is a Production Quality compiler, capable of producing components in multi-million-SLOC systems. Had it not been for the factually-challenged and commercially damaging post you've put at the end, I would have just ignored the whole thing. But there may well be people out there who would take your - ah - used food? - at face value. In which case they'd miss what in my experience is the cheapest production-quality compiler around for Ada-83. GNAT is the best for learning Ada OTOH. OK, if this was a Troll, I've bitten. 'Nuff said.

That would be a neat trick, seeing as the e-mail address you report below is on a machine that does not exist.

I suppose this calls for some explanation. None of this is particularly relevant to any of these newsgroups, so feel free to skip the rest of this article. I would probably ignore it altogether, but now my employer and I have both been attacked. (By the way, the company is *Thomson* Software Products. My name is Keith *Thompson*. It's not named after me. I just work here.) I did indeed send an e-mail message to dlv@bwalk.dm.com (Dr. Dimitri Vulis). In it, I asked him and several others, briefly and politely, to keep a certain discussion out of comp.lang.ada. He then sent e-mail to my postmaster, complaining that I was harassing him. I then sent e-mail to his postmaster, explaining the situation. I also told his postmaster that I have no intention of communicating with Dr. Vulis in the future. Am I a net-abuser? Am I a creep? Have I harassed anyone? Judge for yourselves, but please don't discuss it in these newsgroups. As far as I'm concerned, this matter is closed.
