I've been away from the world for a very long time(10 plus years) and am
curious as to the general state of the language. Apparently it is now
available for the PC (I saw a posting above that someone ftp'ed a
copy from the Univ. of New York). Are there any recent articles on the
language, say, in Language or Dr. Dobbs, etc., that are easy to get a hold of?

Wayne,
Ada is very much alive and well and is one of the only two major languages
growing in its use today (according to a recent Dataquest survey). There
are several sources of articles. The September issue of American
Programmer has an interesting article on Ada. Ed Yourdon takes a devil's
advocate approach to the language today with responses provided by Paul
Strassman.
One of the most complete sources of info on the language is the Ada
Information Clearinghouse bulletin board. Their number is (703)614-0215.
