What is Lazarus? I have been unable to find anything on its web sites 
that say what it is or what it does.
A complete blank. Lots of excited talk about it but no first phrase 
anywhere "Lazarus is a..."

Ah, finally, after a few minutes of wading, in the second screenful
of the wiki Home page, in the box on the right it gets called "Lazarus IDE"
so I'm guessing it's a graphical code development environment
for FreePascal. Am I close?

Seriously, though, it would be worth saying as the first line in Release 
notes
and at the top of any web page likely to be a first hit for people new 
to it and curious.

Keep up the good work
