Here at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory we are taking a long, hard look
at Ada.  One of the issues is just how much Ada would increase programmer
productivity.  If you have any actual experience with this, or are aware of
literature on the subject I would appreciate hearing from you.  I am most
interested in experiences relating Ada to languages such as Fortran, Pascal or
Jovial, where the programs involved are long, e.g. >10,000 lines.  Send replies
directly to me.  I will summarize the info and post to the net.  Thanks.
