Thanks for responding.

[This is for a personal project BTW, so there's no commercial support
required.]

I'd developed in the impression the the AVR port was a community based port
and not an official ACT one which is why I was curious about the port
quality.

I use the FSF GCC Ada compiler on various OS's and architectures, and I
agree about it's quality, but this is the first time that I'm thinking
of using it on something as small as a microcontroller.

Since no one has made any negative comments, I think that trying it on
a small project will be the next step.

Simon.
