It seems to me that the CORBA mapping for Ada is almost dead. The last
official document is formal/01-10-42 for CORBA 2.3.

The ada-rtf team does not seem to be very active in its job to update
the mapping (the last closed issues are from 1999).

OIS which seems to lead this task force is very shy in its promotion
of Ada on its web site.

TopGraph'X is still promoting its Ada products. If ORB-River is
compatible with CORBA 2.6, it seems that it does not include new
features from versions greater than 2.3.

Does anyone have fresh news on the OMG activities around the Ada
mapping ?
