I was waiting for the right time to also offer my sincere thanks to all
teams and individual contributors. I have been using fpc and Lazarus IDE
for quite some years now and I am very pleased with the constant
progress and improvement of these development tools. I have enjoyed
reading and learned a lot on these mailing lists as well. My hope is
that contributions continue for many years to come and that the
community remains helpful as it has always been.

Also when looking through the fpGUI as well as the Freepascal repositories,
there are just thousands of commits. looking at all those commits gives a real
appreciation for the amount of work that has gone into the project. So a huge
thank you goes out to everyone who has worked so hard to make freepascal as
awesome as it is, as well as the people who are such a tremendous help on this
list. Honestly if not for FreePascal, I would still be trying to put together
Pentium 233 computers to run my old DOS applications on. (not fun, components
are getting hard even to find on ebay now) I just don't have time to do a
massive re-write all at once, and FreePascal let me drop in my Turbo Pascal
programs and pretty much just run them.
