Not necessarily, ACT has developed many ports of GNAT at our expense, but
only when we know there is a real market out there (well a couple of times
we have skipped that step and got burned).

Indeed we are not trying to "penetrate the mass market". That's not our
business area. Our expertise is in providing high level support from high
level competent engineers. We don't see that as scaling to a mass market.

The world seems full of people who are happy to spend lots
of energy in trying to get Ada Core to move in that direction, but sadly
none of these people seem willing to spend their own energy persuing a
market that they are sure we are missing!
