| It look other than C. You can't be productive while learning.

That's absolutly *not* our experience here in Thales Communications. 
Beginners on my (rather complex) project understand quickly the code,
because Ada is crystal clear. 
They are able to fix bug quickly because the language and the compiler catch
most stupid syntax error.

We have several time succesfully integrated beginners (first job and no Ada
knowledge). It was easy, provided that peer reviews are done and that
experienced programmers are available for sharp questions, and that they
start with simple coding task.

Those beginners will know 50% of Ada long before knowing 10% of our domain,
and that's a much bigger cost.

PS : to be franck, I won't hire someone with programming experience that
can't master Ada basis in a week.
