Yes, it is my plan do "stay in Ada". I don't think there is going to be a
problem with that. FSU Threads (userspace) used to be used to pass ACATS
tests on platforms which had problematic native threading libraries.

I'm not really patching it. I am trying to create yet another "flavor".

You mean this SDL http://www.sdl-forum.org? I merely know that it exists,
would you recommend studying it to somebody intersted in building
networking applications?

Do you think SMTP (my primary protocol of interest right now) would be
amenable to such (formal) treatment? After all S - stands for Sloppy ;-)
