Subject: Ada domain names: who holds what, and for which purpose?

By curiosity, I have checked if there is some domain name related to Ada
language.
I mean, domains that can be officialy used to represent the language
(even though according to Wikipedia, it is adaic.org. Keep in mind, I am
doing this out of curiosity).
I was being surprised to discover that several domains, that could be
used as an "official" website (like *lang.org, *-lang.org, *.codes,
where "*" is the language name), is bought but not used, and not in sales.
Here is a table of my few research:
| Domain | Owner | Registered On | Country | State | Note
|
|--------------|--------------|---------------|---------|---------|----------------------------------------------------|
| ada-lang.com | AdaCore | 2016-09-20 | FR | |
Point on "thinkx.net", so DNS issue with wrong IP? |
| adalang.com | ? | 2014-03-30 | US | Florida |
|
| ada-lang.org | ? | 2020-02-11 | US | WA |
|
| adalang.org | ? | 2020-02-12 | US | WA |
|
| ada.codes | Steve Arnold | 2014-04-23 | US | CA |
|
We can see that "ada-lang.org" and "adalang.org" seems to be bought by
the same person/entity, but these domains are not used, and not in
sales. Looks like domain retention.
Does anyone know who is behind these domains ?
