Dear Robert,
Since when have you become an adept of the Soviet practice of
rewriting history? There is no such thing as Ada 83: it is called
Ada. Moreover, look at the cover of the new standard and as
far as I can read it refers to a language called Ada 95!
As a Gnat vendor your zeal at burrying Ada prematurely is
clearly understandable, but let us be a bottle of Dom Perignon
that total lines of Ada 95 do not exceed those of Ada before 2000?
Please respond if you accept the bet. We probably have
hundreds of witnesses in this newsgroup.
Best regards,
Jean
P.S. You realize this is a bet I cannot loose: in 2000 I will
celebrate my 60th and Dom Perignon will be quite proper.
