I think its more or less the only Pascal there is used now and it have
a lot of users and a thriving community:

Spoke to soon I just came to think about Free Pascal the last stable
release of that compiler is dated:  January 1, 2012; 57 days ago, on wiki
and it supports all major platforms, so I guess somebody must be using it.
