Ada95 was known as Ada9x up until right around 1995 when it became clear that 1995 would be the year that the current (mostly finished) draft would be approved. I can remember early versions of Gnat that referred to the language as Ada9x. As far as I know, there isn't even really any movement towards making a new standard. So putting a year on it would be silly in the extreme. --- T.E.D. homepage - http://www.telepath.com/dennison/Ted/TED.html No trees were killed in the sending of this message.
