<div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">I often find myself needing a library ported to FPC. Recently I came<br>
across the Lucene project. With Lucene developers can create full<br>
text search / document searches. I need a lucene component or<br>
something like it. Enterprise search is BIG. It would be ideal.<br>
Then you get in the search engines for Lucene keyword and voila - a<br>
developer is going to evaluate Lazarus/FPC for adoption. But the more<br>
developed these components are the better chance will be for the<br>
developer to recommend Lazarus. And for the firm/institution will<br>
approve it.</blockquote><div><br></div><div> </div></div>Yes, more components improve the chance of an developer recommend Lazarus. I do it, because the team made by Lazarus+FPC is very powerful. If the Lazarus Team will follow this philosophy (more is better), my contribution is the PascalSCADA project, and if it's adopted, I'll drop the Delphi support from it (I'm thinking when I'll drop the Delphi support, it increases my headaches). <div>
<br></div><div>The development of project website is stopped now, but in some days I'll put something like that "PascalSCADA recomends Lazarus+FPC" to convert Delphi users in Lazarus users. </div><div><br clear="all">
