The Ada community needs a physics engine on top of which to build state-of-=
the-art games.  Either a binding or better yet a port or fresh design entir=
ely in Ada2012 or Ada2020.  The benefit of a physics engine would have appl=
icability to Ada's core mission of realtime embedded systems (even for mili=
tary usage) far beyond gaming.
