Re: Ada and embedded applications

I really wish that the whole GNU thing had gone off in another naming
direction. We've been stuck for years - and will continue to be stuck for
years to come - with a whole slew of awkward names stemming from the "GNU"
acronym.

One day, comes The Revolution, and I get to run the whole world, we'll name
all software/systems after ex-girlfriends or favorite pets, or dead
presidents or *anything* that doesn't have to be an awkward acronym. ("Let
me demonstrate my new Ada compiler. I call it 'Laura-Muffy-Rosevelt'" :-)

But that's just my pet peeve....
