Agreed.  Show us the code, then.  That's what Linus Torvalds keeps
saying, and he is right about that.

The folks at AdaCore have had a number of exceedingly brilliant ideas
and implemented them in Ada; now AWS and PolyORB are both killer
libraries that go way beyond any other language can offer.  If you have
a similar idea, please make it happen!  And if you don't, please
contribute to a project with similar potential.  One project with a lot
of potential is the SPARK-hardened DNS server, Ironsides; see
