I suspect the Linux community is fairly well used to programs being
released in all sorts of oddball languages (TK, Perl, Python, Java, awk,
lisp, etc). So I wouldn't expect much more than a raised eyebrow about
Ada.

However, I think a series of such releases might help the acceptance of
Ada a great deal.
