- Don't order it from ISO. Online copies are available several places on
- the net, including the Home of the Brave Ada Programmers, the GNAT
- directory at NYU (ftp://cs.nyu.edu/pub/gnat), and the Ada Information
- Clearinghouse
- (http://sw-eng.falls-church.va.us/AdaIC/standards/Welcome.html#95standards).
- ASCII text and PostScript are both available (at least from the third
- source), along iwth the Ada 95 Rationale, which is a much better
- introductory source than the standard itself.
