Larry, even if every vendor released an Ada 95 compiler right now, and
offered you a free upgrade, it might well be unwise to accept it! You may
well find it would cause trouble. Caution is needed in making the switch,
and you are right, people will be using Ada 83 for a while to come for
all sorts of reasons. If you have a good Ada 83 compiler, and it meets
your needs, then there is no rush to change!

Of course if you have to start a new project, and you have to have a
validated compiler, then at some point (several years off), you will have
no choice but to switch to Ada 95, because eventually Ada 83 validation
will expire!
