I cannot speak for 1984-85, but I joined Gemini in February 1988 and
was there until BiiN folded.  While Siemens folk (both German and US) were
involved with several different things, the Ada compiler/library
people were all Intel employees during my time.

When BiiN folded, all of us (including the Ada compiler people) who worked
for a certain manager had a photo taken of us under the BiiN logo.  I wrote
down everyone's names so I wouldn't forget.  Many went back with Intel,
some went to Sequent or elsewhere.

The Ada compiler was DoD certified and had reasonably impressive performance.
I've often wondered what became of it (perhaps the compiler manager knows).
