The ada2012.com site was a good opportunity for Ada to eat it's own dogfood.  Seems like a good candidate for AWS.  If it can't be used for ada2012.com why would anyone consider it at all?

I'm not saying that your Ada instructional wouldn't have been successful, but given the nature of introductory courses, which tend to have an effect of weeding out people who may have chosen the wrong field of study.  It would seem as if that would be enough of a reason for the masses who've been exposed to Ada, just not like it, barring the benefits of the language.  Now, a good instructor who knows the language could certainly make all of that disappear but that may not always be the case.
