That is interesting,

For Ada and for Microsoft too I would say.  I don't think they would sponsor 
if they didn't think there was something there for them, maybe, but I don't 
think so :-).   Microsoft Visual Ada Anyone?  ;-)

But hey, if Microsoft is sponsoring, I think it's great for both worlds :-).

And that's my 2 Cents! ;-)
