Eachus) Subject: Re: Why does the DoD hate reuse entrepreneurs ? Message-ID: List-Id: Once again Greg aims to shoot himself in the foot and hits his head instead. First, I am not sure why the speaker has to be the one spending the money to show a non-DoD commitment to software reuse. The SPC was set up by to promote software engineering and reuse without any government involvement. However, while I am not sure about others on the list, Don Reifer is certainly spending his own money, and has been successful at promoting Ada and software reuse for years. (Maybe Greg is upset by the "Ada first" part of his approach.) -- Robert I. Eachus with Standard_Disclaimer; use Standard_Disclaimer; function Message (Text: in Clever_Ideas) return Better_Ideas is...
