Yes, it looks like FUD. >From the website:
"I'm considering using FreePascal for a commercial project. Now I am wondering if that is such a good idea. If FreePascal becomes a target for Borland and the FreePascal project shuts down I would either have to only provide a Windows (after recompiling with Delphi) application or be forced to convert to another language if I still want to run my application on Linux. Not to mention the legal hassles I could incur for already distributed applications. Perhaps I should forgo Object Pascal altogether and use C++?" It looks like the intention is to scare developers off using Lazarus, in a very similar tactic to that used by Steve Balmer against open source in general.
