What is wrong with the pascal category
Do we really want a third category to further delute the number of apps
over more categories.
I just checked and right now there is Delphi/Kylix and Pascal.
Why wouldn't we want to use Pascal for FPC apps? Isn't FPC, in a certain
way, the standard for Pascal right now?
There are 186 apps under the Pascal category and 76 under the Delphi
category. Given so few apps I am not sure how it would help to have a third.
Also, if the new category was created I am certain people would likely still
add the 'Pascal' tag.. so then you will likely have most apps listed on
both..
I really don't see what advantage the new category would bring.
