	SAIC developed an Ada binding to Xlib (X11/R2) under the STARS contract.  

	The (new! improved!) X11R4 binding (for several different compilers) 
	was scheduled to be released sometime in September '90.  To get on the mailing list 
	for further information, send mail to x-ada-request@expo.lcs.mit.edu.

The X11R4 Ada/X Xlib binding is available now.  SAIC and Unisys participated
in the development of the binding.  Its much better than the old one.
The same software is available from SAIC or Unsiys.  Its now the 
"STARS standard".  It is also compatible with X11R3 Xlib.

An implementation of Ada/Xt is in the works.  Its based upon the X11R4 binding.
