Probably the greatest benefit from the ALS and AIE government-funded
Ada compiler contracts is the large number of people who worked at
SofTech and Intermetrics, and then went on to build a second
(successful) Ada compiler (usually somewhere else).  This is a side of
Ada technology transfer that has not been adequately recognized and
acknowledged as part of an Ada success story.
