Reading FPC and Lazarus mailing lists, and I don't see such problems. And I understood the FAQ, even though IANAL. There's a text

Read again. Lazarus list had a very long discussion about LCL and LGPLv2


"It is therefore possible to create closed source or proprietary software using Free Pascal."

I think that this is even more explicit (and understandable to non-programmers) than your proposed "Yes you can static link with our enhanced LGPL".

Perhaps, but people evidently don't get it.


So what answer would you propose for the FAQ question "Are there any real world applications made with Free Pascal/Lazarus" ? A huge list of every program that was ever compiled with FPC ? A short list of "chosen projects" ? Who will decide and maintain the list of "most bright projects developed using FPC+Lazarus" ?

This selection is done already. See news on main fpc page.


Then propose a better text / feature list for "Advantages" page...

I will try my best.
