Apollon (GUI)

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

I can't find significant coverage for this software. Joe Chill (talk) 23:53, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete, weakly, per nomination. Note that this is apparently about a GUI interface for a file sharing protocol that runs under KDE. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 15:44, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

 * Merge to giFT. It's just a front-end for that daemon. Even though neither seems developed anymore, here is Linux Magazine article that discusses them together. Pcap ping  20:21, 8 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. This is GPL-licensed free software.  Samboy (talk) 22:35, 8 January 2010 (UTC)
 * This doesn't address the notability. Joe Chill (talk) 20:30, 9 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Repeated comment that doesn't address this article that is disruptive of WP:POINT. Miami33139 (talk) 22:58, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. per Samboy. LotLE × talk  20:27, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete GPL-licensed free software almost always has low market share and can be assumed to be non-notable. In this case, Joe Chill found no sources and I trust his assessment. I do not think it needs any merging. Miami33139 (talk) 22:58, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Low market share is not a reason to delete if WP:GNG is met, assuming you could even prove your statement about market share for P2P apps. (Do you buy that kind of software?) Apollon is also covered in the about.com Linux guide. The overall coverage in there plus the two-page L-M article I linked above is enough for a merge per WP:PRESERVE. And Joe Chill doesn't usually revisit his votes until some time has passed. Pcap ping  02:22, 13 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I support a merge. Miami, why did you say that you trust my judgements? I called you bias multiple times. Joe Chill (talk)
 * Comment. I see software AfDs are turning into ideological warfare: "keep: is FOSS", "delete: is FOSS". Pcap ping  02:22, 13 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. I don't give a damn if this is GPL or not.  If it doesn't have significant coverage from reliable third party publications which demonstrate notability of the subject it has. got. to. go.  JBsupreme (talk) 19:06, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
