Thanks for the support here, David. A helpful way to show that
support is to subscribe to the mailing list. So far, the subscriber
list is empty. If you want the list, folks, join up. It's free.:-)

Send e-mail to

listproc AT seas DOT gwu DOT edu

with an empty subject line and the two-line message

subscribe gnatlist your_first_name your_last_name
help

and you'll subscribe and get a help file as well.

I'm going to let this sit for a few weeks (probably till after TRI-Ada 
in Nov.) and see what happens. If the subscriber list is empty or very 
small, we will all have confirmed the opinion that the list is unnecessary.

I will pass relevant list messages on to comp.lang.ada. This list is
NOT a substitute for sending bug reports to report AT gnat DOT com, as ACT
is still going to be the best place to get them fixed.
