First off what does building an IDE with Lazarus have to do with FPC and
it's license. We are not modifing the FPC code or even adding to the FPC
code. In fact it can be used without the FPC source. We are just using
the FPC compiler. I don't understand why you think the FPC license has
anything to do with it. :-\

Thank you Martin W. for confirming that mwEdit is public domain. I'm
also glad to know that you still read the list. :-)
