Can you take a moment to explain why you find IRC better than a mailing list/newsgroup? I've tried them a few times, and just get frustrated with people not thinking things thru. With a newsgroup, people have time to think before they post. I guess IRC feels more like being present; maybe I'm just too anti-social. Sorry, can't help with Ada aspects. -- -- Stephe
