20 May 1988 (after a long day at the keyboard punching Ada ...)

Does anyone know of an Ada to Occam compiler, for use with Transputers?  
Me and a friend were talking this lunch-time, and we decided it would be 
"neat" (to use his terminology) if we could rig a system of Transputers 
to really get the most out of the Ada tasking model.  I don't see any in 
the list of validated compilers, so if there is anyone conducting 
guerrilla research into such an animal please let me know.  Otherwise, 
does anyone know of an Ada to C translator, and a C to Occam compiler 
that will communicate happily?
