                          HOW TO OBTAIN Ada 9X PROJECT REPORTS

Throughout the lifecycle of the Ada 9X project, several reports have been 
published dealing with all aspects of transitioning from Ada 83 to Ada 9X.  
Those reports are available in both paper copy and electronic forms.

Paper copies may be requested through the Ada 9X Project Office at the address 
below.

Alternatively, most Ada 9X Project Reports can be either downloaded from the 
Ada9X Bulletin Board or obtained through anonymous ftp from the /public/ada9x 
directory on ajpo.sei.cmu.edu (the Ada Joint Program Office host) on the 
Internet.

                   Bulletin Board Access: 800-Ada9X-25 or 301/459-8939

The Ada 9X bulletin board can be accessed by dialing one of the above numbers.  
Users should set their telecommunications package with the following 
parameters:

Baud Rate:        300-2400    Data Bits:        8
Parity:           none        Stop Bits:        1

                           AJPO Host Access: ajpo.sei.cmu.edu

Ada 9X reports are stored in the /public/ada9x directory on the AJPO host 
machine.  Users can access the directory via anonymous ftp.  A sample ftp 
connection to the ada9x directory is shown below:

[your-prompt] ftp ajpo.sei.cmu.edu        execute ftp from your remote site.
name: anonymous                           login using "anonymous"
password: guest                           enter password of "guest"
ftp> cd public                            change to the "public" sub-directory
ftp> cd ada9x                             change to the ada9x directory
ftp> dir                                  get a list of accessible 
                                          sub-directories
ftp> cd ada9x.reports                     change to the ada9x.reports 
                                          subdirectory
ftp> get README [newname.hlp]             get README from ftp and copy it to 
                                          "newname.hlp" on your machine
ftp> mget file1...fileN                   get multiple files from ftp and load 
                                          them onto your machine with the same 
                                          names
ftp> bye                                  logout when finished
