Lately I've been unable to even put 5 minutes in to anything Ada (not by choice). I could certainly use the help right now (and most have been very supportive at least in understanding my down times). Contact me for spec. details (any one) if you would like to be part of that. As is well known, I always think it is a good idea to add Ada websites, a new angle though would be more productive then another link site, for example AdaPower's main idea was to be a place for practical How To's and Labs, it became the main link site do to lack of any other and AdaHome's refusal to allow me or anyone else to get involved. For example, creating a SlashDot for Ada, an Ada site on How to program Games or any other spec. area of programming using Ada. Regardless, even though I don't see the point, I support ANY Ada web additions and _even_ if it competes with my site (AdaPower) David Botton Stephane Richard wrote: >Hello everyone. > >I'm in the process of creating my Ada Website. and i'm wondering > >1. if it would be considered blasphemis by the existing website of authority >such as adapower (I dont want to compete, I want Ada to have more presence >:-). >2.
