Ada Letters delivery

Ada Letters delivery

[Lionel.DRAGHI]

I received septembers 2003 Ada Letters yesterday, december the ninth. (I
live near Paris).
I have not checked, but I remember that there are discussions about the
typos problem since a long time on cla.  
I would like to know if it's normal/usual?

BTW, I did not receive a new edition or whatever, I also have the typos :-/

As for the long delivery delay, that has to be something relating to 
international mail. I'd imagine the publishers send everything out all 
at the same time. (Why would they do otherwise?) Or possibly you are a 
new SIGAda member and just signed up?

With respect to the typo problems, my guess is that this is highly 
unusual. I have not seen this before in Ada Letters and I'm sure the 
editors have figured out what the problem was and will get it fixed.

I suppose so. I just want to check with others european subscribers that
there is no specific problem in my case.

No, althrough it's just the second Ada Letter I receive.

Thanks.

I'll hand-deliver it if you'll pay the "postage"!  :-)

Thank you, but the frustration to see peoples discussing Ada Letters papers
on cla one month before I get it is not that big :-)

I travel to England 2 or 3 times a year. I could mail it to you from 
there if you'll cover the postage.

It's very kind of you, Jeffrey, but I certainly don't want to cause you any
additional work (and I don't want any particular privilege).

Thank you anyway.
