"Robert.  Sometimes you amaze me.  What makes you think any such
interest would be there if the DSA had NOT BEEN INCLUDED????
Hmmmm????"


Sorry, I am not sure I understand, included in what?


Included in GNAT? Well it certainly was not at first!

Included in  Ada 95? The best answer there is Corba, there is at least
as much interest in using Corba as a distribution mechanism as there is
in using the Annex E facilities, so inclusion in the RM is not the key!

The interest in these things comes from application requirements!
