"Uses of the term Ada other than those described above, including all 
organizations, companies and product names incorporating or utilizing the term 
Ada, need written authorization from the AJPO. Those persons advertising or 
otherwise promoting a language processor asserted as being a standard Ada 
processor for sale or public use are required to provide the AJPO with evidence 
sufficient to demonstrate conformance to the Ada standard.

"Use of the trademark does not imply any endorsement or warranty of the product 
by either DoD or ANSI.

"The Department of Defense (DoD), as the trademark owner, will allow others to 
use the Ada trademark free of charge and will not take action to prevent use of 
the trademark so long as the trademark is used properly according to the above 
policy. Misuse of the trademark may lead to legal action."

"Beyond 100,000 lines of code you
