Somebody friggin' answer the question...

Yes it will be Ada '95.  It's not anywhere on the cover of my LRM, but it
will be Ada95.

As to where to find it, I don't know that the final one will be available
for FTP (ISO copyrights and all), but the v5.95 final draft is, and here's
the URL:
   
  
ftp://ajpo.sei.cmu.edu/public/ada9x/mrtcomments/rm9x/v5.95.compressed/rm.doc.Z

This is dated 25 November 1994 and is freely distributable.  I have a copy
in front of me, printed out in 7pt Courier and spiral-bound by the local
all-night copy center.  Printed out in that font on BBEdit Lite on a
Macintosh, it comes out to about 450 pages.  I chose green and gray for
the covers, FWIW...nice and military:-).

The AARM is also available there but it would probably do a fairly
comprehensive job of causing any but an industrial-grade paper-snarfin'
toner-spewin' workgroup-servin' final-copy-makin' high end laser printer
to fall over after about page 556. I haven't even tried to download it.

I'm just noticing this now--there's an Ada95 yacc grammar there too. 
Might be useful...
