  Gee!  That would seem to me to be the ultimate in re-use.  The
packages were found to be so ubiquitous that they are now in the
standard.

    Being written...  There are a few out there, and I'll let the
appropriate people speak for themselves.  But real reusable components
are written with a through knowledge of the language and how it should
be used, and are well tested before being released.

    I have a couple that I'd like to release, but right now they work
with one known compiler and at that, only the most recent version.
(Actually one works on gnat 3.07 or later, the other requires 3.09.)

    So it is still a little early yet.
