    Dear Comp_Lang_Ada,

    I am hoping to find some information on Ada and Yahoo Chat clients.

    It seems to me that building a chat program in Ada may be able to solve
    a recurring problem experience on Yahoo chat, namely "booting," where
    various exploits are employed to "boot" people off of their chat server
    connection.

    Although various chat clients attempt to address the problem of
    booting, all of them can be booted rather easily. While this is
    frequently just a mild inconvenience for some, with dedicated
    application it can make using the service completely impossible for
    others.

    Ada's built-in exception-handling attributes strike me as tailor-made
    to addressing this problem and I was wondering if anyone had ever
    considered or pursued building a chat client for Yahoo Chat in Ada.
    Thanks for your time.
