I also wrote a couple of papers on the subject: "Ada's design goals and
object-oriented programming," /Ada Letters/, 1994, and "OOP vs. readability",
/Ada Letters/, 1997. They should be available for free download from

http://pragmada.x10hosting.com/papers.html

If there's a problem with downloading let me know and I can send you copies.
