Hi!

I'm having a Java and web internal course here in the company. The teacher talks about java, javascript, tomcat, jboss, servlets, jsp, etc. Some pupils make questions about .NET technology too.

Some weeks ago I found a site that was a big surprise: http://www.sorn.net/projects/wildcat-cobol-compiler/

Yes! A cobol .NET compiler! The old by never dead cobol language appears again in the IT scene.

Then from some days ago I'm thinking about ask here about the future of FPC and Lazarus. Some years ago Borland Delphi adhere to .NET technology... (at least, I heard about this...)

May the team talk about Lazarus and the plans for the future? I'm very curious about this matter.

Greetings from Sao Paulo - Brazil

I can't answer for Lazarus, but the FPC part is a FAQ:

Note that your message is pretty typical since it doesn't even mention what the advantage of .NET/Java would be.
