Nicely put. ;) I've found it has good points on some arguments. It's good to
be considered. :)

Yes, but the language used puts off some people.

Yup. Sometimes Lars sounds to aggresive. :-D

As far as I know, Lars is a FPC fan, and he merely wishes to express concern 
about
some of the issues he has with FPC (I'll leave the matter of whether his 
concerns
are justified up to others to comment on).

Yes, like the rest of us here, he's also a big fan of FPC. He even using FPC and PWU professionally, he makes his living over FPC. So, he's not the enemy! He knows all the best of FPC and Lazarus because he uses them on daily basis. PWU is one of his contribution back to the FPC community.

If you start with an exaggerated opionion, you can expect exaggerated reactions.

Yes. Maybe it's my fault if everybody then looks at him in a negative way because of his own article. But, he published that article in his public paswiki, somebody else will find it anyway, sooner or later.

It only goes to demonstrate that to be truly critical and constructive at the same time is by no means an easy exercise.

Anyway, it did happened to me as well long time ago. ;) Programming language community is indeed a very sensitive community, we must write in a very polite manner if we want to criticize anything about the language. :)
