The Libre site has a news item stating that Gnat GPL 2010
will be available soon:

http://libre.adacore.com/libre/

Great news, as those of with Snow Leopard on Mac OS X
currently don't have a free compiler available. It will
also support Windows 7 (I am not sure if that is new as
I haven't used Windows for a few years).

Oh look: “Support for Visual Studio 2008”
Ada's roots in the military are showing: Just ready for the last war when
the next one is breaking out.
