Yes, that's the way I use it. Actually, I do this;

(eval-after-load "ada-mode" '(load "ada-mode-keys"))

That way, ada-mode isn't loaded if I'm just reading email.

"fixes" here means "make it work the way _I_ want to". It's not
necessarily "broken" in the official distribution.

But if enough people request it, and no one objects, we can change the
official distribution.

I just haven't had the energy to start the discussion yet.

It will always work for me, but it may depend on other things (like
Else) I have installed.

I have them in the same directory as ada-mode-keys.el. I don't
remember what the requirements are; probably somewhere on load-path.

Ada-cust.lse "fixes" some things to be the way _I_ like them :).

I haven't had that problem; I'm not sure why. Something should say
2005, somewhere :).

The templates for Ada 83 and Ada 95 should be distinct, since there
are differences. Ada 2005 should be distinct yet again. But I'm not
sure if you can share most of them easily. 

I haven't tried to add the Ada 2005 stuff to Else yet; it hasn't been
an issue for me.
