Yes it would.

What would be very nice was if a lot of the students who take Ada 95
courses at the university could see that Ada 95 can also be used to
make cool programs using either GtkAda or SDL or other Toolkits. I
mean that one see that one can make nice GUIs with Ada too and not
only the hyped Java. So that when the students that also codes as a
hobby, goes home they will continue programming in Ada 95 and not
revert to C/C++ or Java. I think Linux and the desktop area of Linux
is a opportunity for Ada to make a "comeback".
