Sorry but that is no proof in itself. Lots of non-free software is
downloadable too.

Well, in my company currently there is a huge effort being done to make
an
inventory of all software and licenses. They need to know of each and
every
byte wether or not it's legal to have a copy. You can imagine that there
is
no proper time to extensivley investigate each software and therefore it
needs to be clear from the website for instance the software is free.
Well, what else does the 'Free' in 'Free Pascal' stand for ?
The name of the website itself spells it out for you:
www.lazarus.freepascal.org !
I understand how you feel..... :(
Michael.
