Joe,

You should get the copy from ada20.  It is kept much more up to date.  I'm
not sure that it's the "ANSI" Ada LRM, but it certainly isn't the draft.
You can check its status by calling the Ada Information Clearinghouse
(202)-685-1477 (I think), or sending mail to ada-info (not info-ada!)
@ada20.isi.edu. You can find the files you want in ps:<ada-info>lrm-*..

For those of you who can't get the files via anonymous ftp (I don't believe
that ada20 has an archive server running), contact the Ada IC for
information about tape distribution.
