Not really.  When you believe you're working out of the master
repository, you have no particular incentive to perform merges
against a secondary repository.  Merges may happen, but they will
not be regular without extreme discipline.

Which has, quite obviously, not been happening.

And so I stand by my assertion: Ada will continue to languish
in the FSF repository until such time as the folks working on
it believe that the FSF repository is the master.
