I have written a semi-detailed comparison of C++ and Ada, which
includes both technical and non-technical considerations for
their use in developing commercial products. It is not based on
actual experience with either language -- only the reading of the
"official" books describing them and some discussion with users.
I am willing to mail a copy to anyone who is interested, or post it
if the interest is really high. It is about 8 pages in length.

By the way, I do not agree that C++ and Ada are all that similar,
but they do have some major features in common.
