I honestly misread your initial post. I now see your problem a little more clearly. C# has the benefit of being much more of a gorilla than Ada. You will have a better time finding maintainers with C# versus Ada. That may not mean a lot to you if you are not using the .NET stack very much. Don't sell Ada short either though, it is incredibly powerful. Without knowing much about what you are trying to accomplish, it is difficult to give you a hard recommendation either way. For a business in the US. Without knowing anything else about the project, C# probably makes more sense. Hurts a bit, because I definitely want to say Ada.
