HELP!!!  I am looking for dates related to Ada (the programming language),
any history preceding it, MCCR policies, standardization, etc.  For example,
I know the following:

   o	Announcement of Ginny Castor appointment:  1985 October 23

   o	DeLauer memorandum:  1983 June 10

   o	3405.1 issued (finally):  1987 April 2

   o	3405.2 issued (finally):  1987 March 30

	(did you ever notice how very carefully 1 April was avoided?!)

   o	Ada = ANSI/MIL-STD-1815A:  January 1983

There's a LOT that I am missing, and I would appreciate ANY help I can get,
including dates for:

   o	Service standardization on / acceptance of Ada (US - Army, 
	Air Force, Navy)

   o	Date Ada an ISO standard

   o	Date Ada a <pick-your-favourite> MoD standard

   o	Date Ada Board was formed

   o	Dates of Steelman, Stoneman, HOLWG-related stuff ...

   o	Date first validation (NYU Ada Ed) awarded

   o	Date first "real" compiler validation awarded

   o	ANYTHING ELSE YOU THINK MIGHT BE RELEVANT to a top-level
	history search

Your inputs will be kindly appreciated.  THANK YOU!
