I was shocked to see that CLAW costs $500 for one copy ?

this is no way to make Ada more popular on windows. why would any one
pay $500 to buy a binding to win32 that they have allready just to use
Ada? Imagine asking a manager to sign for a order for $500 for this, when
most software manager do not even know anything about Ada.

if you want people to start even thinking of using Ada for windows programming,
this binding need to be FREE. in few years when everyone start using Ada
on windows, maybe then you can start charging more.
