I rather had the impression that AdaCore is running wide circles around
Windows and Visual Studio. Building Windows GUI applications in Ada is a
right pain in the backside, because there's no decent dialog designer (not
even for .Net). And as mentioned, the Visual Studio integration seems to
be dependent on the phase of the moon (Titan, not Luna).
