    Since MITRE is publicly funded, as probably this effort was, and since
it doesn't sound like a classified project (or if it is, strip out the
classified constants and data), how about posting the code to comp.lang.ada?
For all of the great, publicly funded Ada projects across the country,
much non-classified, why don't you guys ever post these codes, or at least
make them anonymous-ftp downloadable.  Is "Reuse" just a phrase to get
more money out of the DoD to pay for overhead?????
