Hi Niklas
I've been reading Ada books for 7 months and writing on IRC and here for 7 months as well. What I have not been doing enough of is reading other people's Ada code and writing my own Ada code.
I have been basically trying to say that GNAT and the compilation process could perhaps be improved for those who wish to tinker more with the process. However I think it would be better for everyone if I spent more time reading GNAT internals. Even at my skill level I am finding it surprisingly easy to understand. 500K lines of code will take some time but it's mostly Ada, not C. I fell on my face trying to read the 18K lines of C code that Lua is built from.
I also have several projects I have not started or postponed, I better get back to these.
I'll dig this thread up again in 6 months when I have more knowledge and can explain myself better
