Libra

Libra is a general library for Ada '95 under Unix-like operating systems. It should work without modification under other operating systems, but GNU/Linux and FreeBSD are the main targets at the moment. I would be pleased to hear what peoples experiences are about trying to build or use Libra under other operating systems (Unix-like or otherwise).

Libra currently provides some basic data structures (singley and doubley linked lists, binary search trees, queues...), and abstractions for NNTP and SMTP commands.
