Felipe, I agree with you in theory, but I'd still recommend you to move utf8string together with fpvectorial and fpspreadsheet into Lazarus. This way, you can develop much faster, without the need to fight for your changes, and without the need for a half-duplicate CCR repository. As for visual vs non-visual distinction, Lazarus can be used to produce console applications just as well, so moving to Lazarus does not automatically means depending on LCL. -- Alexander S.
