I see

    Latest     ada-mode-5.2.2.tar, 2017-Jul-09, 1.57MB

so it looks like the package was built "promptly".

Ah, that is indeed a problem.  The apache daemon was down for an
unknown reason.  I just updated elpa.gnu.org to the new Debian stable
this week, so it's probably linked.  IOW I hope the problem won't
reappear, but I expect it will.  I'll try to keep a eye open to better
catch and fix the problem next time.
