Hi, FPC and Lazaurs team
I noticed there is new component (PascalScript) ported to
lazarus/components/ and in the past AggPas also ported,
The idea, why you put many components not used for most users, same ask
in FPC
My example to understand me
I use SQLite, we found a bug and this bug fixed by FPC team, now we must
wait long time to have new release with this simple bug fixed.
But if the SQLite unit in another repository, this Extended repo can
published the releases more faster than FPC releases, If FPC release
come one every year this repo collected and released 4 time in this year.
There is the idea to have some/most/all units under packages being
distributed by a FPC package manager (which already exists more or less:
fppkg) which can update the installed packages. The switch from fpcmake
to fpmake is a first step in that direction, but I don't know how high
the motivation for a package manager is...
Note: In concept it would be similar to package managers for other
programming languages like Python, Ruby or Lua.

Sven
