As I said earlier, it is most definitely the case that ACT
would want to see continued development by the community
here.

I am sure this is an area where there will be lots of
disagreements as to which is the best thing to do. Our
development is based on the needs of our customers and
our own development team, and we have our own opinions
about how things should be done. Tight integration of
GNAT related features is indeed one of the goals we have.

We are simply sharing what we do here, no one is forced
to take it if they don't want to! We will most certainly
be continuing to develop Ada mode, but independent
development is certainly welcome, and we will feel free
to borrow any good ideas out there, and people should feel
free to borrow any of our ideas that they care to!
