You start out talking about "translation," but then you bring up the issue
of "conversion." There is a big difference between the two. Translation
will produce a FORTRAN structured software system with Ada syntax. Conver-
sion will produce an Ada system taking advantage of the features of Ada
such as packages, generics, private types, and tasking. I believe there are
translators on the market, but I have not as yet heard of any successful
conversion product.
