Me neither, but it's here:

That's still the latest public release from Adacore, but the Gnat that 
is part of GCC 3.4 has some later improvements. On the other hand it 
also lacks some of the surrounding tools.

Its feature set is great, but in the latest public release it's still 
annoyingly buggy, and some of the features aren't supported by the 
public releases of Gnat. Particularly non-English letters seem to screw 
up almost everything in GPS. If only those problems get sorted out it 
will in my opinion be a very nice development environment.
