As well, some members also wanted some insight on the part of compiler vendors as to what their point of view was to determine what should be part of the library itself as per research or plain customer requests. This is what I'm attempting to answer with these inquiries to set that side at ease, settle it so to speak so that we can move on to the next phase of the CAL initiative :-). -- St�phane Richard "Ada World" Webmaster http://www.adaworld.com "Marius Amado Alves" wrote in message news:mailman.253.1067789954.25614.comp.lang.ada@ada-france.org... > On Sun, 2003-11-02 at 15:09, Stephane Richard wrote: > > Irvine Ada Compiler's reply to my questionnaire.
