A few questions on Ada standards

A few questions on Ada standards

[L. Armstrong]

<------------------->
	Is there anyone out there who either is, or knows of someone who
could answer a few technical questions about Ada standards?  What I'm really
looking for is someone who is an "authority" on the subject. (If there are
such people in existence)

	My problem is this:  I have recently joined a project for the writing
of an Ada compiler, and have found what I believe to be a few flaws in 
some of the assumptions that has been made about Ada.  I brought these
matters to the attention of the others involved, and now we are indecisive
about a few directions to take on certain matters.

	So, if anyone knows (or is) someone who could help me, I'd be 
appreciative.

First off, you don't make it clear what you mean by 'flaws in some of the
assumptions'.  Do mean that certain parts of the LRM are ambiguous, or that
there apear to be contridictions in it?  What I think you mean is that you
and the others that you are involved appear to be in diagreement as to some
of the semantics of the Ada language.

If you have a valid gripe or comment about the LRM then you can contact:

or send mail to:

Check the Section:

in the back of the LRM for more details on this.
