1) Not everybody owns a copy of Delphi to compare. Since when is it a 
good idea to have a Open Source project rely on a Commercial product.

2) FPC seems to target Delphi 7 compatibility - but considering how old 
Delphi 7 is, that seems to be a ridiculous goal. What Delphi version 
does the Lazarus project try to mimic?

3) Does that mean LCL-Win32 being the closest to Delphi.... ie: a 
wrapper around the native Win32 controls. Does that mean LCL-Win32 is 
the reference implementation for all other LCL widgetsets?

4) Continuing with option (3). Are there any defined tests or test 
projects that can confirm LCL-Win32 is compatible with Delphi's VCL? I'm 
talking about events, order of events firing. And then also components 
and properties of said components.
