The ARA has a number of ongoing activities:
1) Suport for the maintenance and enhancement of the Ada Information Clearinghouse
website (http://www.adaic.org);
2) Support for the Ada Rapporteur Group (ARG) by covering Randy Brukardt's
time and expenses (when he can't convince the DoD to do so);
3) Support for the Ada Compiler Assessment Authority (ACAA) and the Ada Compiler Assessment
Test Suite (ACATS; aka ACVC), again by covering Randy Brukardt's time and expenses;
4) Support for SIGAda (primarily used for the SIGAda booth, but also other
student activities);
5) Support for development of new Ada success stories, writing of Ada-related articles,
and other Ada-related marketing materials, primarily by covering Ann Brandon's time
and expenses.
We are looking for ways to be more visible and effective. We hope to create a web area
specifically designed as a place for marketing the benefits of Ada to non-users;
the URL for this area will be included in promotional ads/click-throughs in banners,
search engines, print, etc. Hopefully this effort will begin to become visible over
the next 6 months.
