The difference according to the maintainer of Adasockets is:

   GNAT.Sockets is officially supported by ACT while AdaSockets is not.
   GNAT.Sockets will always follow the simplest possible model, while
      AdaSockets won't.
   GNAT.Sockets is not object-oriented, AdaSockets is.
   GNAT.Sockets supports JGNAT, while AdaSockets don't.
