The military and aviation communities have always gone in for Ada.

After all, they invented it.

  Well, surprising to me. The military/government part was not surprising, but it was my impression, based purely on talking to other folks and hearing stuff to and fro, that Ada was a little aged and not used quite as much anymore. And for some reason I never associated it with embedded computing either, but that's just ignorance.
