(Finally - a post that actually *IS* from me!)
From the self-same article extolled by one of the other
post-ers on this bboard, "Ada: Past, Present, Future"
from CACM, October 1984, an interview with Jean Ichbiah:
"I see the global architecture of Ada as a cathedral,
with all the architectural lines interwoven in a
harmonious manner. I would not do it differently if
I had to do it over again."
Also from the same article, in response to the question:
"Would you expect that to be a relatively minor revision?",
Ichbiah responds,
"It is probably too early to say, but I tend to think
it would be a very minor revision."
And, just as a reminder, Jean Ichbiah is one of the Ada 9X
Distinguished Reviewers.
One should always know one's history and the key players
before making assertions about what could/should/might
get accomplished ...
