This could be a good sign. It could means that :

- Ada skill demand exceed Ada training

- Ada is going more and more outside of the "safety critical" field.
  There the constraints for code quality is relaxed. The good news is
  that a lot of Ada jobs are going to be proposed...

- Ada is begining to be popular and many peoples are embrassing it
  too fast without a long training.

Just some thought.
