Also, Adacore stated that they would be the first to use Ada 2005 spec in GNAT Pro. But, other than may be GNAT PRO license users, the official Ada GPL version using Ada 2005 specs was not generally available until May 4, 2008. Note: GNAT GPL 2007 (released in summer 2007) still defaulted to Ada 95 specs. URL Ref. : http://www.adacore.com/2007/03/07/gnat-pro-601/ http://libre.adacore.com -- 2007/2008 releases But even with a typo my comment is still valid, Adacore started to insert Ada 2005 specs into its GPL version before January 24, 2007 and a lot of programmers were using Ada 2005 features, before they were approved.
