Hi,

Nothing serious, but could the lazreport project on sourceforge be closed somehow ? I mistakenly downloaded and tried to install it, leading to all kinds of errors before I realized that lazreport is actually included in Lazarus under components/lazreport...

Maybe the project should not be removed (don't know if this is actually possible on Sourceforge ?) but putting some kind of BIG warning on the lazreport website of sourceforge would be nice. Additionally, it would let people know that lazreport is not dead, which is the impression one gets when looking at sourceforge :-)

Michael.

I only got that impression when trying to use it. ;)

I don't know if I should laugh or cry.

About the SourceForge page, I don't maintain it and if I ever had the permissions to change LazReport on sf from CVS to SVN I probably wouldn't submited LazReport on Lazarus almost a year ago :) (maybe somebody else would do it anyway :D)

If the project in source forge is abandoned you can ask for a take over. If the owner doesn't respond in 1 month or so you have it.

It's impossible to remove a project, you can just hide all downloads and write a message for people to download it with Lazarus. Maybe if you ask the source forge staff they can close it.
