So yes it is fine being there. > Does it make sense to include NON-free components in Lazarus distribution? Similarly, many icons were recently removed from Lazarus because they were NON-free, even though optional to use. This breaks the paradigm and consistency that FPC, Lazarus and LCL are licensed under modified LGPL <http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/licensing>.
