Chicken of the VNC

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

While this is a cute play on words, as a software product it has not been noted in a non-trivial fashion by any reliable third party sources. coccyx bloccyx (toccyx)  17:35, 23 October 2008 (UTC) 
 * Note. That it's also a download from apple.com, does that help? Just asking. Drmies (talk) 20:14, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete The subject is on the verge (possibly) of satisfying notability, but at this point I don't think anyone could say there is significant coverage by third party sources. Jeremiah (talk) 19:50, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep. There are ca. 150 references listed on google news. Mentioned in dozens of books about OS X, according to google books.  Seems like one of the most notable VNC clients for Mac OS X. --Karnesky (talk) 02:16, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep going with Karnesky on this one. Google books shows it is a common software mentioned in Mac books. Google news shows it is mentioned as a great VNC product for Mac. It needs to be sourced but seems to meet the WP:N requirements.  Gtstricky Talk or C 14:31, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep - Satisfies notability; is the only mainstream VNC solution for Mac OS X; it is talked about all over the web. CorpITGuy (talk) 17:30, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Per Karnesky et al. -- Banj e  b oi   23:57, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. While the depth of coverage may not be great, there are great many references, including lots of the dead tree variety. Since this app is not part of OS X, there's no obvious place to merge this stub. VG &#x260E; 01:22, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. No release for close to three years, that appears to be tagged as a "beta" and there's been no CVS update for 19 months.  This topic is easily relegated to a simple entry in the Comparison of remote desktop software entry where its entry on that page can link to the project page for the software.  There is little in the page that adds any more information than what is already on the comparison entry anyway. Kurt (talk) 21:13, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
