*** I agree, although I dont think it's that bad an idea, but Jeff is right,
the library shouldn't reflect what was used to develop it because it will
follow through Ada's evolution.  An independant name like CAL or any other
for that matter would isolate the library from the language thus making the
motion from what version of Ada to the next seamless :-).
