Re the recent discussion on the Ada trademark, the following file in the ASR may be of interest. I created it from the Ada IC newsletter of the time. Thanks to Mike Feldman for the suggestion of bringing this out. Rick Conn Ada Software Repository Release Notice Release of: Doc on Lapse of Ada Trademark ------------------------------ 1. Taxonomy: ADA BOOKS AND DOCUMENTS ADA TRADEMARK ELAPSES ------------------------------ 2. Abstract: The Ada trademark elapsed (was no longer effective) in late 1987. This file is a page extracted from the AdaIC Newsletter of that time (file PD2:<ADA.NEWS>AIC53.DOC in the ASR) which explains the rationale for the lapse of the trademark and the use of the certification mark instead. ------------------------------ 3.
