It is obvious to most people, I think, that Ada _is_ Verdix' "core
software programming business".  Our Ada business is growing and 
profitable and we like it that way.  We're working very hard on our
Ada compilers and in support of our many Ada customers.

It just so happens that much of the VADS technology can also be applied
to C/C++/whatever compilers, and that we think the new compilers that
result will be competitive in their markets just as VADS is a top-notch
competitor in the Ada market.
