I like the idea of advertising Ada by using a subgroup on the Lego forum. Otherwise, I agree with using comp.lang.ada. It would be interesting to see what traffic results. However, while I used to do robotics for NASA, I'm not anticipating doing Lego robotics, so this doesn't affect me directly. Although I suppose I might be able to contribute advice; that won't happen on the Lego forum, but it will here. -- -- Stephe
