An interesting interview with Tucker Taft, some times after Ada 2005
standard was released. It's all summarized, but cover a wide range of
anecdotes, ranging from Ichbia and Taft respective view of language
philosophy, the hard work (and sometime failure) to convince every
reviewers with a world-wide standard, his belief that Ada will always play
an important role as a benchmark for other languages, his disappointments
about the crowd of scripting languages quickly emerging every where (about
the same errors repeated again and again), and some sort of suggestions he
give to every one to learn and *understand* (the abstract way) multiple
languages instead of just one.
