Most people will not be able to install GNAT from sources, since it
does indeed assume GCC expertise. It is definitely true that ACT is
not building public binaries for most platforms these days (our
current intention is to build binaries for GNU/Linux/x86 and for NT).
We expect that other public binaries wlil be built, distributed
and mirrored, by those who do know how, as happens for other GNU software.
