Hi Jean-Pierre, I'm flattered that you thought of me.  Are you
alluding to "Ada in Debian" as a possible subject?  I note that Ada
has already had some exposure in 2002:

http://linuxgazette.net/issue81/adam2.html

<thinking aloud>
With all the material that already exists on various Ada web sites, it
would be possible to write a long series of articles for the LG, even
if articles are small and target an audience of newbies.  I can
imagine:

Introduction to Ada structured programming
Introduction to Ada generics
Introduction to Ada object-oriented programming
Introduction to Ada tasking
Introduction to Ada 2005
Introduction to Ada.Containers
Introduction to Ada in Debian
Introduction to GtkAda
Introduction to XML/Ada
Introduction to the Ada Web Server (potential for several articles:
HTTP, SOAP, WSDL, etc.)
Introduction to GPS

etc. etc. etc. (potential authors will know themselves :) )

Of course, it is easier to have ideas than to implement them :(
