Ada's share of non-embedded markets is zero to any reasonable precision that
you want to use. I don't forsee that changing in any significant way (the
$25 I can put into marketing Ada and Claw isn't going to make any
difference). The only place it gets used is in larger embedded systems (like
avionics, ATC, etc.) But perhaps you are using some odd-ball definition of
"embedded"??
