What do you think it would take to port IBO to Lazarus? How similar to
Delphi is the language?
What I'd do is hire a programmer to port it for me.
Same goes for .NET.
Also, I'm not so sure its a bad thing that Delphi is up for grabs. Borland
has suffered major brain-drain over the years and it could be a very good
thing to get it into new hands. Let's be optimistic.
