    Apparently IBM has now changed its tune; its recent brochure
    entitled "Ada and IBM... Capability and Committment" states:

      IBM is committed to Ada.  Ada's support for modern software
      engineering concepts, its breadth of application, and its
      support for reuseable software components place it squarely
      in the forefront as a language of choice for both IBM's
      software engineers and for IBM's customers.
