I am looking for some clear information related with ada compiler licensing.
Is it possible to build commercial applications without releasing the
source code using latest "libre" version of gnat ?
Or is it necessary to buy a $15K commercial license from adacore in 
order to build commercial applications ?
What's the difference in license between gcc ada and gnat ?
What's the difference in functionality between these:
(gnat, gccada3.44, gccada4.1.0 ? )
What happened to the Eclat compiler ?
Is thee any ada compiler under BSD license ?
Thanks for your help.
Klobert.
