Reactions to Google's Doodle in German newspapers are fairly good.
They are puzzling or incorrect to a reasonably small extent only.
From the original content to be sold, archived, and payed for by
the equivalence class of Google, by a German law-to-be:

``Yet, there is hardly anyone among computer scientists on earth
who has not mastered "Ada", the first standardized programming
language.''

(Doch unter allen Informatikern auf der Welt gibt es so gut wie
niemanden, der "Ada" nicht beherrscht, die erste standardisierte
Programmiersprache.)

``Today, Ada's name stands for several programming languages
with static binding of types.''

(Adas Name steht heute (...) f�r mehrere Programmiersprachen mit
statischer Typenbindung.)

   -- written for publisher Axel Springer AG (Die Welt).


``Today, there is even a programming language named after Ada Lovelace.''

(Heute gibt es sogar eine Programmiersprache, die nach Ada Lovelace
benannt ist.)

``Ada is primarily used in industries relevant to safety,
for example in space travel, in the medical area, or in
air trafic control.''

(Ada wird vor allem in sicherheitsrelevanten Branchen eingesetzt,
zum Beispiel in der Raumfahrt, im Medizinbereich oder in
der Flugsicherung.)
