The author, Hans Marqvardsen, you were responding to just happened to
mention my name, since he has an article on CONIO on my site. I wouldn't
get involved with a thread like this unless I was dragged in!

I am well aware of Ada/Ed :) I have been developing software
professionally for the last 14 years, although not always in Ada.

Like I said, I got dragged in to this.

I only "feel" (I don't have proof, nor perspective on the market to
validate my "feelings") that this would be an important feature for
future customers of Ada compilers. It certainly has nothing to do with
compiler validation.

Yup.
