Both FPC and Lazarus predate Embarcadero's Delphi. So any verbatim code
copying would have to be relatively recent. Since Lazarus is cross
platform, only Windows based widgets would be the source of ANY
potential threat to ligation. So Lazarus worst case scenero is that
only PART of the project could EVER be called into question.
This procedure may apply to US law (copyright), but not to EU law
(author's right, droit d'auteur).
