@marco
The ftp address for download reports 550 "No such file or directory." when accessed from UK.

Thanks, the stack mirror changed over the summer and now has "mirrors" in the path. I'm not yet used to it.

See http://bugs.freepascal.org/changelog_page.php for the list of reported
 bugs which have been fixed in this release.
Very confusing page, no word about 3.0.4.

Jonas maintained that mostly, and he is currently very low on time.

I'll see if I can at least the ones easily spotted from SVN logs in the coming days. If somebody has specific issues he wants to see "fixed in 3.0.4" status, please mail or pm me and I'll check them explicitely.

The base fixes revision for 3.0.4 is r37112

Just a minor point, but the main homepage says it was released on the 28th, not the 30th. Is this correct?

I particularly like the out of the box Raspberry Pi distro. Works straight away. Well done. Congrats with this release.

Sorry dumb question... How to get 3.0.4 on my Raspbian Stretch?
I found "fpc-3.0.4.arm-linux-eabihf-raspberry.tar" but it is "for an EABIHF, compiled on RaspBerry 1 arm-linux system (for armv6 cpu)".
But Rasberry Pi 3 has armv7 cpu. Is it important?
