Do you know the existing fpdebug project? It works somehow but should be improved. You could still collect money for developing it, the license does not prevent such things.
Why does the title say: "
debugger for windows"?
Lazarus is a cross-platform system, its debugger must be cross-platform, too.
How is the success of your project measured? I guess it is important for the people who donate.
Is there a deadline for a finished version? What features must be there to qualify as "finished"?
- under free license (no MIT, no GPL, just free for any use)
What does this "
free license" mean? Can somebody turn the code into closed source and claim copyright over it for himself?
(L)GPL, MIT, Mozilla and such FOSS licenses have put lots of effort to ensure that source code remains available also in the future.
At the same time they are very free and liberal. For example library code using LGPL with linking exception can be used in any commercial SW.
