I > suggest updating :-) May be more users would update and reread documentation if each new manual had a "new and updated" section. (I already made this remark has a customer BTW, so this is not only "free user" wishlist ;-) You can't expect users to reread a few hundred (boring even if well-written) pages they've already mostly read every six monthes and do the mental diff (if it's even possible). The release notes for the technical part is very good, why not do the same for the documentation? I really hope the GNAT 3.14 documentation will have such a section, otherwise I probably won't read it, and this will nullify GNAT people work on it (at least for me). -- Laurent Guerby
