Your experience differs from mine.

I contributed a critical bug fix and an enhancement to XML/Ada which took 
several months to appear in a public release.  Those changes were included 
in version 1.0.  How log have we been stuck on version 1.0 now?

Unless AdaCore is more responsive to integrating patches, I think it does 
merit maintaining a separate CVS tree (sourceforge or elsewhere).
