Hi Victor

[Moved reply to fpc-other]

It seems Allen's G+ post has been deleted... I wonder why. ;-) From the post you quoted, that is a *massive* blow to the Delphi product.

I see Delphi is going the way of Kylix. Long live Free Pascal!

Regards,
Graeme

Hi Graeme,

Thanks for the list change, I was going a bit off topic.

The Allen's post is still there, it's posted at the beginning of the G+ thread. I saw you just write to that thread now.

Best Regards
