AdaCore has little interest in community use of Ada or popularizing it beyo= nd its customer niche, it runs contrary to their business model. What is im= portant is that there is a community and when you reached out you got an an= swer. So don't focus on what AdaCore did wrong (since they will tell you th= ey did "right" while everyone else sees the problem). Very few languages ha= ve as strong a community or ones filled with as much expertise. Perhaps consider writing a new Ada XML parser or binding to an existing C o= ne to help improve the image? I wish I could say to help document XMLAda bu= t its license restrictions make that effort wasteful. David Botton
