Fortran to Ada Translators

[Ed. - forwarded, with answer...]

Yes, there is a FORTRAN to Ada translator as part of the WIS effort
available on SIMTEL20.ARPA.  There's also a COBOL to Ada translator as well.
I think it translates some subset of FORTRAN 66.

Do any Fortran to Ada translators exist?  Just to bias the responses a bit,
I'm not convinced a translator is even a good idea.  Fortran uses only 38%
of the same language features of Ada!  Also, no software engineering
concepts would be utilized!

I would appreciate any responses by July 13.  Our center will be moving to a
new location and our DDN will be shut down for a few months.

Thanks in advance.  Barbara Pemberton, Naval Training Systems Center,
