Please excuse my ignorance (as always) but..

I have not heard about this being in Ada9x.  I understand that it was in the
original pre-standard Ada and later rejected.  
 
We academical types would certainly love to see it again.  
 
If this is indeed the case, does anyone have the [proposed] syntax for the 
assertions?  And, if so, are the syntax diagrams the same as they were in the
pre-standard days?
