I was wondering, why is it that of the many Operating Systems written in Ada (see http://commons.ada.cx/Operating_Systems_written_in_Ada), none of them really took off? Not only that, but the average computer user has not even heard of them.
Do you envisage that a large-scale commercial or even open-source OS destined for the masses could be written in Ada, and be successful? In theory, yes, of course... but in practice?
