I wasn't pushed from Ada05; instead I avoided the pull. As I'm a hobbyist the pull on me was minuscule - I will disseminate no lasting artifacts. Some of my component inventory weren't Ada05 compliant, so I chose indolent obsolescence over the joys of configuration management. Lots of my exercises are "just like that other one, except ...". Therefore it benefits me to leave things mostly alone. I take Simon's point that the standard probably should displace the bc's. Perhaps I should schedule an attempt to upgrade. Right after the other activities with higher priority. Regards John
