I've been thinking about looking at integrating it in somewhere as a resource.
I currently integrate my Changelog and Release notes into the binary as compressed resources using 
lazres. I just decompress them into streams as required and use loadfromstream() in memo components 
to display them.

If I can figure out how to integrate simple resources using the new fpc resource stuff, I'll do it 
that way.

Regards,
Brad
