Hello:
Because of USA policy, Sourceforge has blocked users from Cuba, Iran
North Corea and other "rogue countries".
http://sourceforge.net/blog/clarifying-sourceforgenets-denial-of-site-access-for-certain-persons-in-accordance-with-us-law/
I am from Spain and have a contact in Cuba (we have worked together in
some projects, mainly translations into Spanish). I have talked him
sometimes about Lazarus, although he is not a pascal guy, he sometimes
downloads it and checks it.
I don't mind to download Lazarus and to put it in my site for him.
Probably he could use a anonymizer too. But I
think it's a waste of time and resources.
I don't intend to start a flame about USA's foreign policy. But perhaps
you could think an alternative. Not necessarily to move away from
Sourceforge, but maybe to have a mirror in an alternative repository
without such restrictions and link it in Lazarus' site
Regards
Santiago A.
