> There is no reason why Lazarys would/will not become production ready. > Proof: It is in production use already. As one of the production users - I can vouch for this. There are several others on this list whom I know are doing production work in Lazarus as well, Graeme and Tony for starters. One of the things I think works best for lazarus is that it is written in the same language it uses - so every user is a potential contributor (unlike most programs and IDE's users typically CAN program) which is why I think it has such an amazing rate of expansion - we must be averaging about 5 or 6 patches on most days. So not only IS lazarus production ready - it's getting better at a huge rate, and because it is free software, when you lack a feature, you can add it with relative ease as most of us has done at least once - which is why it grows so well and in response to the current most urgent needs of it's userbase.
Okay enough me-too'ism :) PS. Michael, I have been chasing deadlines all week, I will draw up a standard interview set tomorrow and send you the questions.
