Robert, I am (unfortunately) not paid to be an Ada expert, I have
other work to do, and I'm just trying to find out how I can make that
job easier and less stressful by contributing to a discussion on
compiler quality.
When I have some time, or when I can persuade my company to let me, I
will look at the ACVC tests, but the fact that I haven't so far must
not exclude me from expressing opinions on the effect of the tests,
based on the experience I have of using the products that have
(mysteriously) passed the tests!
Best Regards
