...Ada is increasingly becoming a niche market inherently characterized by high costs, low demand, and lack of innovation...

As you might imagine, guy over at comp.lang.ada didn't like this all to much. Read what they had to say, and the letter to the editor.
I haven't read the article yet, but the quote above is contrary to what I experience. Esp. as regards costs (GNAT is a great compiler, and free) and innovation (see the JVM compilers, free code available on the Net, etc. etc.)
