I asked google bard:

"Is gnoga currently maintained?"

And it answered:

"No, Gnoga (Ada) is also no longer maintained. It was a fork of the original Gnoga project that was created in 2012. The last commit to the GitHub repository was in 2016.

Gnoga (Ada) was an attempt to improve the performance and scalability of Gnoga. It used a different statistical approach to NLG and was implemented in Ada.

There are a number of other NLG engines available, such as GPT-3 and LaMDA, which are more powerful and up-to-date than Gnoga (Ada)."

Is this correct?

Hello Reinert,

Do you mean this one: https://sourceforge.net/projects/gnoga?

If so, the answer is yes.

Could you please provide the link where you found the above quoted text?

Pascal.

I just logged into my google account and asked "bard" (https://bard.google.com/?hl=en).

The presence of the word "also" in the first sentence should be enough to tell
you that this is nonsense.

If you are asking about an "NLG engine" named gnoga, then maybe this is correct.
If you are asking about the Ada web-application framework Gnoga that Blady
maintains, then it's not correct.

Good to hear.
Yes, did mean the Ada web-application framework.

Gnoga not dead, but being maintained by Pascal, Gautier and other
individuals and companies.

Expect a pleasant surprise (imho) before the end of the year (with full
web demos). v22 manual abstract :

1 About v22 framework
1.1 Ready to use in production

v22 is a general purpose, KISS oriented, modular Ada framework for
GNU/Linux Debian/Ubuntu service, console and web programs.

v22 is composed of many packages in charge of UTF-8 strings, program and
OS functions, HTTP(s)/WS(s) web framework, integrated cURL, console
handling and text files, advanced network, MySQL and SQLite high level
binding, logging and configuration files handling.

Although based on the v20 library, the v22 framework represents a major
step forward in the following areas:
- UTF-8 compatibility;
- Simplified string processing (only one UTF-8 String type is used);
- Internationalization;
- New and extended database API;
- Extended database access to MySQL, in addition to SQLite, with schema
on-the-fly update at table, index, and colums level;
- Improved concurrent access and performance for SQLite;
- New LGPLv3 licensing instead of GPLv3;
- New FSF GNAT GCC Linux ready-to-use development environment for v22
(not tied anymore to GPLv2 licence);
- And much more.

1.2 Cooperative and open

v22's native dependencies are Gnoga, Simple_Components, UXStrings and
Zanyblue.

v22 is both a high-level framework and an extension to the lower level
components cited above. v22 has been designed to:
- Use unmodified components;
- Not "reinvent the wheel". Component functions are to be used first;
- Offer higher-level functions or functions that do not exist in the
components.

..../...

In short:
- UXStrings is used throughout v22. The v22.Uxs package extends
UXStrings functionality. The v22.Sql package extends the functionality
of Gnoga.Server.Database. The v22.Gui graphics framework is based on
Gnoga.Gui;
- v22's architecture allows it to be open to additional packages,
depending on the software development required.

Sounds like I can somehow trust that gnoga will be around many years to come.

So my special issue: I work on making my (cancer) cellular behavior analysis program (https://korsnesbiocomputing.no/) as a "cloud service". Its all programmed in Ada using GLOBE_3D. I consider using guacamole apache. Its intensive about handling images. So what are the aguments for and against using guaceamole (as compared to for example guacamole apache) ?

Hi Reinert,

I think so.

> So my special issue: I work on making my (cancer) cellular behavior analysis program (https://korsnesbiocomputing.no/) as a "cloud service".

Very interesting indeed.

No idea. My first concerns could be scaling.

Did mean ...... *gnoga* (as compared to for example guacamole apache) :-)

> Did mean ...... *gnoga* (as compared to for example guacamole apache) :-)

No, sorry, I was thinking more of Guacamole. Not really fond of a remote
desktop vs a true Web app... But maybe I'm wrong...
