:I was surprised to see mention of a c.l.ada/eiffel war. I wasn't following all

:C++/Eiffel wars. I've found the Ada/Eiffel discussions polite and very

I agree the current tenor of discussion between Eiffel and Ada advocates
is positive. There have been some heated debates in the past which haven't
been too constructive. My own criticism of Ada has probably led some to
believe I have no appreciation of the language. This isn't true. I happen
to prefer Eiffel, though I would choose Ada in preference to C++ any day.
Eiffel and Ada advocates are often passionate about their favourite
language and crossposting carries the risk of sparking a bun-fight.
However, it can also help clear up misconceptions about each.
Don.
