Various Ada software packages available...

[Dale Stanbrough]

I've finally put up a number of packages that i've used to 
teach programming in Ada. You may find them useful. They can
be found at...

   http://www.cs.rmit.edu.au/~dale/software/index.html


No copyright restrictions on them apart where stated.

The page currently contains...

	String processing 
	HTML output routines 
	Ada.Text_IO visualisation tool 
	Forms based programming 
	Simple Unix interface 


Let me know if you find them useful/have any additions/suggestions.

This is unclear, do you mean that you are putting this material in the public
domain? If so, a clear statement to this effect should be placed on the
material in question (this means of course that someonhe else is free to
modify your work and copyright it themselves -- in this situation, even you
will not have the right to copy this modified work).

I always assume an unmarked document is copyrighted by its author, and
that it should be treated accordingly. It is a good idea to put (c) xxx
on a document to claim the copyright, but it is not required, and the
necessary chain of copyright custody can still be established (though
with more difficulty).

In this case your email message, if it is possible to clearly
authenticate it, might well damage a copyright claim irretrievably,
so it is indeed probably safe for anyone to copy the material, but
it is really helpful if every document posted on the internet has
a very clear IPR statement.
