From AdaCommons
There are a number of ways to find people who can help you in your adventures with Ada. Below are listed some of the resources available. Please only add human-interactive resources (chat, e-mail, newsgroups, etc.)

#ada - IRC (Internet Relay Chat) channel
There's a small but loyal throng that hide out in the #ada channel on Freenode. If you're going to go through the trouble to ask a question, please stick around long enough for someone who may know to answer. Operators are not standing by waiting to answer your call, sorry!
comp.lang.ada - Internet Newsgroup
If you don't have newsgroup access, you can access it online using Google groups. It certainly helps to know what you're talking about when posting there, however. Many of the regular posters are directly responsible for the Ada standard and are authors of various compilers. Not recommended for the newbie.
