I hope to find some time to resurrect ICS for Kylix I wrote so long ago. At that time it was an implementation of TWSocket for Linux. It should still works but of course lacks all the features added since then.

There are changes, like 1 based strings instead of 0 for mobile. Unfortunately, all the ICS iOS development was done by Arno who has not been able to contribute for a few years, neither I nor Francois have real Linux experience, and I'm really too old to learn new operating systems or compilers... So if ICS is to support Linux, we need some assistance from one or more people, who probably want to implement Delphi server applications on Linux. This work can start immediately with a beta of the next Delphi release. Any interest in Linux?
