I'm not selfless enough to offer to contribute to a proprietary software
product for free (and I wouldn't expect you to want to hire me), but
I'll join Jeffrey in offering a word of encouragement.  I'm not that
excited about a Linux version since ISTM that GNAT works perfectly well
under Linux.  But a version for embedded targets would be very
attractive.  I wonder if you could team up with one of the embedded
toolchain vendors like Rowley or MPE or Forth Inc to combine your
compiler with their hardware support stuff.
