I can make sure you, they're wrong. I'm using FPC/Lazarus on Mac Leopard on daily basis. Both work well, though Lazarus is still a Carbon app. Yes, Carbon is about to be deprecated, but it wouldn't be happen tomorrow, perhaps 2-3 years from now. By the time, I do hope Cocoa binding already mature enough to replace Carbon. > If not, can anybody post some screenshots on the Lazarus wiki > or something so I can send Joanna Carter and others to that link to > prove the point?

They're ignorant people. No matter how many facts you're giving to them, they would still reject them. They'll keep saying FPC/Lazarus would never leave the "beta" status and not ready to be used on real work. They just want to have Delphi, or other alternatives, but *not* FPC/Lazarus. I don't really understand why do they hate FPC/Lazarus so much? What did we do to them anyway?. :( -- -Bee- has Bee.ography at: http://beeography.wordpress.com _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lazarus.freepascal.org http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
