I have been following the GCC mailing lists for some time. Remember that even though GNAT is part of the GCC family of languages, AdaCore maintains their own internal tree independent of the GCC tree. AdaCore has a commitment to maintain a stable base of software for their customers. It would be difficult for them to use the GCC tree directly. It would also be unresonable to require patches to the GCC to be reviewed by AdaCore, thus there is a need to maintain two repositories. Thankfully AdaCore dedicates resources to keep the two trees in sync, which is mutually beneficial. If the libre site granted read access to the XML/Ada CVS and a reasonable response time in reviewing and applying patches to an XML/Ada, I would see no need to maintain a separate repository. I cannot however see any financial advantage for them to do so, and doubt they will. So in my opinion if XML/Ada is to grow outside of AdaCore, a separate repository is warranted. For obvious reasons, I think it is best that a single repository outside of AdaCore be used for a more open development. Preferably some convention of peer review prior to integrating changes will be included in maintaining the repository. Steve (The Duck)
