If the documentation doesn’t give an answer to your questions, you can obtain more information on the Internet, at the following addresses:
http://www.freepascal.org/ is the main site. It contains also useful mail addresses and links to other places. It also contains the instructions for subscribing to the mailing list.
http://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/ is a forum site where questions can be posted.
Other than that, some mirrors exist.
Finally, if you think something should be added to this manual (entirely possible), please do not hesitate and contact me at michael@freepascal.org. .
Let’s get on with something useful.
