Not really - more that the vendor made poor business decisions (one couldn't
sell their product overseas, for example), and so lost out in the inevitable
Ada market contraction. Many of the "requirements" we imposed are now
described in the Ada standard. The real moral of the story, IMHO, is to
never plan on a long-term relationship with a single vendor, toolset,
platform or language.
