Yes, anybody can do that.

Sorry? I don't get it.



Anybody (also Giovanni Premuda) anyone spread this all over the Lazarus site by 
posting forum messages and submitting news items, anybody (also Giovanni Premuda) 
can edit the Lazarus readmes and release notes on the wiki, anybody (also Giovanni 
Premuda) can request updates of the debian debs in the debian bug tracker.


There are no notes on sourceforge to be edited or updated, so nobody can do 
that.

Anybody (also Giovanni Premuda) can spread this everywhere else.

Do you get it?

With kind regards,
Vincent

Go to http://www.mail-archive.com/fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org/ and  
enter CheckListBox is the search box at the top. You'll immediately  
end up at one single message, because there is only one hit.


You may want to search the Lazarus list as well:

OK, I had the wrong impression that the lazarus docs where editable only 
by insiders, as the main site seems to be.


So:
by posting forum messages 

Done

and submitting news items

How?
, anybody (also Giovanni Premuda) can edit the Lazarus readmes and 
release notes on the wiki
Done, 
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Installing_Lazarus#Ubuntu_.2F_Debian
anybody (also Giovanni Premuda) can request updates of the debian debs 
in the debian bug tracker.

I don't think this is necessary


There are no notes on sourceforge to be edited or updated, so nobody 
can do that.

Could be useful


Anybody (also Giovanni Premuda) can spread this everywhere else.

Done. (Ubuntu Forums)


Do you get it?
No, I would like to see this as a news item and on the FAQs on the main 
site. 


But it looks like you are understimating the importance of this bug:

1. Potential user (i.e. potential contributor) install lazarus.
2. Potential user launches lazarus and sees an ugly interface
3. Potential user searches around and finds out that he can rebuild 
lazarus with GTK2 interface

4. Potential user rebuilds lazarus and... the rebuild doesn't work
5. Potential user thinks: I knew it was to good to be true
6. Potential user is neither user nor potential anymore

Servus,
Giovanni
