The GPL effect is designed to be viral -- AdaCore is now adhering
to it more closely.  They are quite in tune with the FSF manifesto.

The fact that AdaCore motives are likely to be promoting their own
supported product is obvious, as is the fallacy of those who had
viewed GNAT as the answer to all problems in provision of compilers
for Ada.

Computing (like life) has no "magic bullet".
