Thank you for the references, when time permits I'll read time as I'm still=
 trying to get through the very boring ALRM 2012.  When I was "professional=
ly" programming a couple of decades ago it was C, Pascal and assembler.  He=
nce I do lack personal evidence to make an assessment but the ideas of prog=
ramming by extension seems appealing to me.

And indeed I noticed indeed that you and Dmitry are on the opposite side ho=
wever sharing the same love for Ada.
