Ha! It is to laugh.

The DoD closed the AJPO many years ago, and issued waivers to the Ada
requirement
at the drop of a hat. At some point they did away with the requirement
so that they no
longer need to issue waivers.

Ada sees far more use in high-end telecom equipment and in high-end commercial
avionics (e.g., Boeing 777) than it ever did in the DoD.
