Do you really think, Lazarus should only exist to develop Lazarus? For creating a successful and strong development tool (which is the goal of the whole project AFAIK) you need not only contributors but users as well...

Why needs Lazarus users that contribute nothing?

Vincent, I think not all users will contribute, maybe the majority of them will not, but they help the project nonetheless, IMO.

1. Some that do not contribute a lot will still spread the word of Lazarus, especially if their experiences with Lazarus are good ones.

2. Some *will* contribute a little, a few may contribute a lot in various ways (documentation/testing if not actual code contributions). I believe the "Law of Averages" is simply in control as far as this goes. As the user based increases so will the contributions, bug reports, documentation, etc. Maybe its like panning for gold!

Thanks for your hard work, Vincent (and other Lazarus developers). Your work does not go unappreciated :)
