PS: I also post a list with available packages, if somebody knows a package that is not in the list, please let me know.
Did someone post Indy to OPM without telling me???
I'm Indy's maintainer, but I'm not a FreePascal/Lazarus user. Now how am I supposed to keep Indy updated in OPM, or make future changes to it, if I don't even know how it was setup in OPM? I guess the OPM maintainer is going to have to send me the current details.
Now granted, anyone can submit any component for consideration for inclusion in OPM. But come on, shouldn't there be some checks-and-balances in place to make sure that
some reasonable amount of effort is made to contact the component owners to get permission before actually adding it to the list? Maybe the owners aren't around anymore? OK, do whatever with it. Maybe the owners are still around and will want to maintain it themselves? OK, give them the option. Have some consideration, please!
Since Indy does support FreePascal/Lazarus, now I have to take time out of my busy schedule to figure out how to setup Indy on my end to
continue supporting OPM now that it is already in the system,
before I was ready for it. Thanks for forcing my hand.
