I personally hated this change and it was very confusing in Kylix documentation. Everybody knew "delphi" as the IDE, then in Kylix there was references to "delphi" too, but that was a Windows product whereas Kylix is a Linux project. Bla, bla, bla... you get the point. Please don't do the same thing as Borland did. Keep the language that Free Pascal uses as "object pascal". As for the combined name "Free Pascal Compiler & Lazarus" - personally that is not confusing at all to me. After all, they are separate projects. With a little (some) effort, who knows, maybe Lazarus IDE could use the new cross-platform compiler that Embarcadero is going to release in the future and FPC.
