Ada
Issues are developed by the ISO/IEC JTC1/SC22/WG9 Ada Rapporteur Group
(ARG) in response to comments on the Ada standard (and related standards) from
the general public.
These comments usually concern possible errors in the standard. The ARG is tasked
with resolving the errors, and the Ada Issues are the result. (To submit a comment,
use the ones of the ways described in the Ada Standard, or see below).
Ada Issues are grouped by the standard which they are for.
(For this purpose, Corrigendum 1 for Ada 95 is grouped with the Ada 95 standard,
and Corrigendum 1 for Ada 2012 is grouped with the Ada 2012 standard.) For newer
classes of issues, this site contains downloadable versions of the entire set of
issues and important subsets. It also contains the master version control system
for most classes of Ada Issues. Any version of an Ada Issue document (since
April 1998) can be downloaded from the version control system.
See the ARG Procedures document for more
information on this process. trap
Keep in mind that some issues are still under
consideration, and may change significantly before final approval.

Comments can be sent to the ARG in one of three ways:
- by creating a new "issue" on the ARG GitHub site:
The ARG Github site
is a place to send and discuss technical comments on the Ada Standard. It is
not the place to ask questions about specific Ada
compilers, Ada programming problems, or Ada tools. (Such questions are best sent
to the comp.lang.ada newsgroup or other social media avenues.) The site is
open to the public.
- via e-mail to the Ada Comment mailing list.
The mailing list
is another place to send and discuss technical comments on the Ada Standard. The
list is open to the public. Details for joining the list as well as other
information on the list are found here.
- by filling out a web form at:
The web form just populates a Github Issue, so it it
preferred to directly create such an issue if you are already familiar with using
Github. When you directly create an issue, you will get e-mails when people post
comments to your issue, so you can more easily respond to questions and
criticisms.
