Sorry I did not see exactly what your 10% was referring to here.
I don't at all buy that we can afford to spend 90-95% of our
development time on failed ideas, and we definitely see nothing
like this in practice.
Some examples of features that were developed primarily from
internal ideas and suggestions at Ada Core Technologies using
only or mostly our own resources are:
1. The entire distributed annex
2. The static elaboration model
3. The new integrated development environment
4. ASIS-for-GNAT
5. GNORT
6. Much of the specialized NT support
7. The GNAT library, including especially the pattern stuff
8. JGNAT (GNAT for Java)
well this list could go on for a long time. I am sure that
there are those who will read this list and say, gee I really
think that they should have done XXX (my pet idea) instead
of N (choose a number from 1 to 8), but for sure all the above
have proved very important to at least some users and potential
users of the GNAT technology.
