Yes, it is forseen, yet there is no deadline for this.

I cannot comment on this, as I was not involved in AdaBroker.

Don't go too fast, there was also the Ada 2003 RTF 

http://www.omg.org/techprocess/meetings/schedule/Ada_2003_RTF.html

and this RTS did nothing but delaying its revision deadline from
December 2003 to July 2004 and did nothing since then.

So, I would not propose anything until the first drafts are made available..
