(We already did discuss this years ago ;-) . I do hope that just asking 
a question each year is not too annoying....)

I am (supposedly) not going to a "use" anything to do any real 
applications at all, but I am doing some groundwork to help my 
colleagues to port some of their Delphi stuff to Linux.

I am quite sure that I will not be able to have the 30 years Delphi 
users switch to mse, but some hope remains to talk them into using Lazarus.

Right now, there is news by Embarcadero that the next version of Delphi 
will support doing native ARM application on Android devices. Thus Linux 
_is_ going to be supported somehow.

But here they would need to switch to FireMonkey. This might be close to 
impossible, again, while the LCL is much closer to the legacy Delphi VCL.
