Tenon, ACT, and McKee Consulting have teamed together to port GNAT to the
Mac.  You will have to purchase MachTen (a UNIX port that runs as an app)
to use GNAT, but GNAT itself is free.  Note that Tenon will soon be
releasing a less expensive, special version of MachTen to do software
development only.

Intermetrics has also released a (beta) version of their AppletMagic
compiler, which translates Ada95 source into Jave byte-code.

I myself am using Meridian OpenAda, which I purchased from DC Heath.  It
targets only 68K, though.

For more infomation about Ada compilers, visit the Home of the Brave Ada
programmers.

I also suggest you let Symantec, Metrowerks, and Bare Bones Software of
your interest in Ada technology for the Mac.
