Why not gnat Ada in gcc?

    I don't agree with this.  After programming for 10 years in C, and
    learning both Ada and C++, I found Ada easy to learn and not very
    complex.  Certainly much less complex than C++.  Don't re-enforce the
    FUD.

I'm talking about the complexity of a *compiler* for the language, not the
difficulty in programming in it: these are very different things and require
a different level of knowlege.  Ada is at least as complex as C++, mostly
because some things that are left undefined in C++ are defined in Ada.
