Here is a summary of replies I got re: ada under unix. If anyone else has more info please let me know, and I will pass it on: aron shtull-trauring harpo!presby!aron ****************************** Try looking at the University of York implementation. Also, the ALS that Softech is building might fit the bill. It will be public domain. Charles ****************************** The NYU Ada/ED implementation isn't quite public domain but it is close. It will run under VMS, 4.1 BSD Unix, (I believe USG ?.0 Unix as well), Amdahl UTS and some random IBM opperating system, MVS I believe, and probably CMS and a Cyber 8xx series machine with enough memory if someone wanted to push it. The VMS version is available from NTIS (National Technical Information (?) Service (?) ) for "cost" which being government is about $300+. This is due to the terms of the Army contract under which we did the original work. I have no idea how up to date their current version since we are still tracking a moving target. The other versions are kept relatively up to date here from our VMS sources. For information on the others please contact (politely) ARPAnet: SCHONBERG.ACF2@NYU UUCPnet: ...!harpo!floyd!cmcl2!acf2!schonberg (CSnet and Bitnet use appropriate gateways.)

They were `associated' with one of the official U.K. ada projects, so I dunno how public their stuff will be, but in general U.K. Universities have very (VERY) strict rules about use and abuse of Univerity facilities (e.g. academic Un*x licences, time, letter quality printers .. ) for work from which financial gain may be made. I believe there was a company called Ada U.K., addressable care of Pyle at the Comp. Sci. Dpt. at York. John Hutchinson BTL Holmdel
