[edit] Delphi
Danakil: FPC is nearly 100% Delphi compatible from a a language view. If you have an object pascal category, you could add it. -- Marco van de Voort
[edit] Dates
Where are the dates for FPC history ? We don't see any dates listed until well after the project is underway. Please add some dates and place FPC on a historically accurate footing.

[edit] Screenshot
There is a screenshot form the Free Pascal IDE on the german version of the article ... it should be added to the wiki commons and included here. --Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho 02:58, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Links
Link to FPS IDE is obsolete. New location is [1]
- Well, you are right, but why don't you just change it then? Anyway, I did now.
[edit] Links to Programs
Is there a place where I can link to programs coded in FreePascal? SharkD 18:48, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] History
The major incentive for creating FPK Pascal was not the fact that there would be no new dos version, but that there would not be 32 bit compiler [2][3]. One of the factors for the early success was the support for dos, which Borland dropped. 193.172.182.85 10:36, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Version 2.2.0 released
OK, version 2.2.0 was released on September 10, 2007. I've updated the infobox and the last part on OS targets, but I'm not introduced enough to the details to know exactly how far 2.2.0 went in adding the 2.0-missing features noted in the article. It's outdated now for sure, but I haven't verified if all fixes scheduled for 2.2 / in the 2.1 branch was indeed fixed and not postponed. It's likely they all were, but I'd still like someone introduced in the software better than me to update the parts I left with update tags. — Northgrove 06:54, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] On Portal:Free software, Free Pascal is now the selected article
Just to let you know. The purpose of selecting an article is both to point readers to the article and to highlight it to potential contributors. It will remain on the portal for a week or so. The previous selected article was Debian Free Software Guidelines (part of the Debian social contract). --Gronky 21:15, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
