  Hi Sven,
 
Thank you!
This is all great news. I perfectly understand, and I also support some open 
source projects.
However the dynamic packages have been in the works for at least 5-6 years if I 
recall.
If the product does not catch up on at least some of those items, it simply 
will become irrelevant :-( . It will be a shame after all the great effort that 
has already gone
into it if.
 
I am extremely overworked myself, but I am looking into any option to help it.

We are all overworked. The bugtracker keeps filling.

None of us likes the accusation that 'FPC is stuck in the last century'.

But as Sven pointed out: there are many other things that also merit work,
and we're all just volunteers who do this on our spare time, as we have pointed out many times in the past.

Personally, I can't wait to see Joost's implementation of extended RTTI and attributes merged to the trunk compiler. Unfortunately, I don't have the knowledge to do it myself...

Michael.
