        From the APA, or any publishing company, even computer literature 
and etc. All references are at the bottom or back of the chapter/section and 
the main references are always at the back of the book.  Even in GNAT for the 
specification files, the Ada statements are always at the top with the 
comments aka reference can be found below the statement.  This suggest that 
TOP POST is the accepted way of the world and bottom posting is just plain 
backwards.

        The only exception that can be seen in GNAT is the PingPong program 
that is commented at the top of the "GNAT.Sockets" specification package. 
Searching for all of the routines passing all of that dead comments in that 
package it a wonder why people still use "GNAT.Sockets" instead of just 
using "GNAT.Sockets.Thin" all the time.

        I prefer parts of the APA and Adacore way instead of your style 
of bottom posting. More standardized
