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. -- -- Stephe
