Actually, that will be closer to GNAT 3.15; a lot of work has been done since 3.14, and that work is reflected in the gcc source tree. In addition, any release based on the gcc source tree will not have the same quality aura as an ACT public release, since ACT has much more strict quality controls than gcc in general. ACT seems to be getting into the habit of releasing the "previous" version as public, keeping the "current" version for supported customers. I'm not objecting; any public release is fine with me. On that basis, the answer to the question above is "the day after the ACT customer release of 3.15" :). -- -- Stephe
