I don't see anything about safety for dynamic, memory management in that link. It just talks about correctness. I'm specifically wanting affine types and ownership system that let SPARK go from static to dynamic.

I do like them splitting it into several levels, though. That worked under Orange Book for security.

My bad, slides are not available yet... There's a mention in there about some rust-like ownership proof mechanism in their roadmap. I thought about our last exchange on SPARK & rust when I saw this :-).

AdaCore hired the guy that designed ParaSail, however the language development is a bit slow.
