Back when ACVC was responcible for determining whether or not a implementation was conforming, actually I think they still do this today maybe, although I doubt anyone checks to see whether it has thier OK or not. There aren't actually 10, maybe 5 or 6 different standards for Ada from its original implementation by the Dod up to today's ISO Ada 9X' [95' isn't it?].
