I read Robert's post as saying something like:

"If you want us to consider producing such a product, please make a
formal request for an evaluation thru our sales office".

That sounds like a reasonable request to me. If a product you want
isn't listed on GNAT's current product list, you have to ask for it!
Otherwise they have no way of knowing you want it.

Robert is simply saying that asking on comp.lang.ada is _not_
sufficient; asking on sales@gnat.com will get attention. It may not
get you the product immediately, but if enough people ask, they may be
willing to fund the development on their own.

When you ask on sales@gnat.com, be sure to say how much you spent on
the alternative MS tools, and how much more you would be willing to
spend on Ada tools. Money talks; ACT listens.
