Ada-Auth.org and Archive.AdaIC.com still do, along with the search engine used in the RM and the Ada-wide search. (It doesn't use AWS; the server was originally a Claw example program and has been expanded from there.) I need to upgrade the hardware (it's more than 10 years old), but that shouldn't be a significant problem for the Ada code. (The other programs are much more of a problem.) Randy.
