Exactly. The best Ada implementations I;ve ever used were never free.

Replace the word "Ada" by "software" and you'd be corrrect. It's not about
Ada, it's about any software; if the developer can't make a living from it,
then it necessarily has to be a secondary project (because everyone has to
make a living somehow). In which case the quality will suffer.
Part of my objection to your rant here is that you keep making this about
Ada. It's not about Ada, its about any software with built professionally
(or, practically any other way). There's nothing special about Ada in this
regard, there are only a few things that truly are available everywhere.
Randy.
