The ratio of Ada to C++ is? Much less Ada than originally intended, according to my sources. I have been away from the fray for a while, so I am not sure of the current ratio. I know that AdaCore continues to be a strong supporter of Ada and that is the bright hope. Rational and Aonix are nowhere to be seen. I am in a DoD environment where it would be helpful to have them visible, but I never hear from them. I must say that Praxis is still proactive and they even had someone visit our campus a while back. They are the only Ada company to come to our site. I used to hear from DDC-I on a regular basis, but they seem to have drifted out of sight too. It seems to be up to AdaCore and Praxis to keep Ada alive and in the public eye.
