GNAT Community Edition is the upstream source code that is pure GPLv3 witho=
ut the Runtime Library Exception.  This is 1 & only topic that we have all =
been discussing all along.

Only if that author wrote GNAT Community Edition itself.  Otherwise that au=
thor-of-merely-an-app(-or-library) received the GNAT Community Edition as u=
pstream derivative work of further upstream GPLv3 source code without the R=
untime Library Exception, which causes the app (or library) to be GPLv3ed-w=
othout-RLE as well.
