[Lazarus] Lazarus, Jedi etc.

[Mark Morgan Lloyd]

Elsewhere, somebody's posted this:

"But we already own Delphi XE2. My understanding is that Lazarus is 
still clunky compared with Delf at basic IDE-and-forms stuff; Lazarus 
doesn't support key familiar libraries that we rely on to slap together 
the basic elements (Jedi, Virtual Treeview, <cough> Quickreport...), so 
Laz's connectivity to MySQL doesn't really enter into the equation."

Can anybody comment on the extent to which this is still fair comment, 
so that I can feed *accurate* facts back?
