Thank you Ludovic, thank you Simon

This should clear things up for me along my learning curve for the next few=
 months.=20

There are all sorts of resources on the net about programming with Ada. It =
will be years before I will be able to offer anything helpful(in terms of s=
yntax and semantics) to new users that isn't already explained better somew=
here else but I think the Ada toolchain world could really use more tutoria=
ls.

I could probably post something useful about mixing C and Ada(in particular=
 shared C libraries). I could probably write something useful about the sta=
te of baremetal programming and RTOS programming with Ada and and I can now=
 explain much of the licensing issues, which I have found extremely confusi=
ng confusing.

Thanks again
