Note that GNAT is fully supported on Linux, and is indeed
a natural match (both are GPL'ed open source systems which
critically depend on the GNU infrastructure).

We have a number of serious commercial customers using the
supported version on Linux, and we see increased interest
in this platform every day. For GNAT, we consider Linux to
be one of our leading platforms.

Note that public versions of the supported GNAT ports,
including the Linux port, as well as some volunteer ports
for other systems, are freely available at multiple sites.
