T.E.D. says

"I feel the momentum for changing Gnat's name building..."

Well, we don't :-) We have no intention of changing the name.

And in any case, to think that a mere name change will prevent people
having misconceptions is, I am afraid, unrealistic :-)

Also, we prefer to still capitalize it as GNAT :-)

We discussed having a competition to determine the best after the fact
acronym for GNAT (so far we are rather partial to the "Great New Ada
Technology" suggestion :-)
