The ISO working group on Ada agreed that the common vernacular for the
2007 version should be Ada 2005. See the post in this newsgroup
recently (I searched for Ada05 in comp.lang.ada at
http://groups.google.com/advanced_group_search?hl=en):
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.ada/browse_thread/thread/11c630572e59f461/f1cf1036a71fca56?lnk=st&q=&rnum=3&hl=en#f1cf1036a71fca56
The rationale for this choice is that a lot of people have been
calling it Ada 2005 for a while, and there's no real harm in
continuing. The GNAT compiler has an option -ada05, for example, which
is not going to change to -ada07.
