 RSN. If you want to keep abreast of this, probably the best way is to

This is misleading. I think the questioner here wants to
know when a fully usable version of GNAT based on GCC 3
will be available, and we have not said RSN to that yet,
we do not even have a fixed schedule, though we have some
customers using beta versions of this technology. The
sources at gcc represent work in progress, and as I have
mentioned before, there are known problems. The main reason for
putting sources there now is so that build and testing
procedures can be worked out. Don't expect a fully usable
public version of GNAT from these sources for a while, and
as far as the commercial version goes, that is quite a
separate issue and will involve products directly available
from Ada Core Technologies as in the past.
