This post was partly inspired by the ada2006 post a few doors down from this 
one.  I was wondering, in a casual sense, what goes into the development of 
a language, for example ADA?
I've tried searching the web (google), but most of my searches are drowned 
out by general programming language information and nothing turns up of an 
eye catching nature.
I was wondering if anyone could (and if so, provide) help in finding 
anything that could help attain at least an overview of the process?

apologies beforehand if i have not checked what would be regarded as obvious 
places to find such information.
