   I am giving SEI a chance to figure their screwup on their own, and
come clean by themselves.  A few more weeks though  (timely before Tri-Ada)
and I will help them out.  Hint:  L-I-B-R-A-R-Y.

Ten years into Ada and they finally get around to doing this, something
the GAO called for over four years ago?  A competent businessmen would
have done this from day one, especially after making such outrageous
claims about the benefits of Ada.  I agree it is a good idea, just ten
years and billions of dollars too late.
