Yeah, I don't understand FPC core team (and Lazarus core team) either. If all they want is Delphi compatibility, then why the hell would be choose FPC - rather go with the 'real' product Delphi! I moved over to FPC in the hopes that it would be BETTER than Delphi - not just on par with Delphi. As for my comments in the FPC and Lazarus mailing lists... Unfortunately my comments don't bare much weight these days. I don't see eye to eye with most of them, and pissed off way to many people in the past. What gets me the most is the double standards. Macro my introduce breaking changes in a STABLE fpc branch, but other merge requests which would not break anything was rejected in the past (multiple times).
