Why Modern Pascal isn't standardized? Take a look at its other brothers and
sisters, for example C & Fortran. (AFAIK) C has been standardized in 1989
and 1999 (there perhaps earlier ones), while Fortran in 60,77,..(I forgot
these ones, there are too many),2000,2003(,2005?). Pascal has only 2
standards, ISO-7185 (Standard Pascal) in 1990 and 10206 (Extended Pascal) in
1991. Since most todays Pascal programmers use Modern Pascal, I think it's
worth to be standardized. At least, those Anti-Pascal community will no
longer argue about standard (which I hate very much).
