Someone asked about whether Intel has at one time considered the i432
to be an Ada machine?  The answer is yes.  An article on this may be
found in the June 1981 (yes, I mean 1981) issue of IEEE Computer.  It
is titled "Ada for the Intel 432 Microcomputer" and is by Stephen
Ziegler, Nicole Allegre, Robert Johnson, James Morris, and Gregory Burns.

Also, regarding acquiring source and documentation for an Ada runtime
system:  It should be possible to obtain this material for any Ada
compilers developed under government contract.  These include ALS
compilers done by SofTech and by CDC under contract to the Army and the
Navy, and compilers done by Intermetrics under contract to the Air Force.
You need to contact an organization called NTIS (National Technical
Information Service, or some such) for further information.  (Or perhaps
SofTech or Intermetrics could provide information.)
