Hi,

I always find reading the Ada9x (and older) design documents fascinating.
Arecent discussion here pointed to an older discussion of
access-to-subprogram types, whcih referred to the MRT documents. Reading
those was very informative.
Reading Tuft's LSN about multiple inheritance is another example, and the
LSN about hierarchical libraries is also highly recommended to reaaders
that are not from the Ada9x team/DR etc.

I was looking for a discussion of the "storage pool" mechanism, but wasn't
able to find it. 
Can anyone point me in the reight direction?

Thanks

P.S
If anyone wants to read the documents I referred to, he may go to the AJPO
directory at http://wuarchive.wustl.edu/languages/ada/ajpo/ . Going into
the pol-history direcotry will bring you to many interesting documents.
