My comment was more addressing the general public misconceptions of the language. I showed some of my teammates the work I've been doing in it and they were shocked, expecting the language to look like COBOL. When I reference "today's standards", I was referring to the kinds of modern features people expect from a newer language. I haven't had too many problems using the community version of Gnat made by AdaCore, but I share many people's concerns with the main toolchain being developed by a private enterprise who commercialise it. The version of GCC bundled with Fedora Linux IIRC had an Ada toolchain out of the box too. The lack of runtime support for a wide range of architectures/boards was a bit of a bummer, but that's just a function of it's popularity I guess.
