Send $$$. ;-) This was a project that was ideally suited for the Janus/Ada
compiler suite, but we never were able to find a customer for it. The
problem is always that the first customer has to pay a substantial part of
the development; later customers don't have to pay that freight. (Back in
the "waiver" days we considered doing it for the "fun" of making DoD-types
have to find better excuses to avoid Ada than a compiler not existing for
it, but the likely ROI wasn't there to convince the angel investors to go
along with the idea.)
