I can't find any reliable sources that shows notability. Fails WP:NOTABILITY. Schuy m 1 ( talk ) 22:44, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Comment It says development has stopped. What am I missing? HOw is this notable? ChildofMidnight (talk) 07:26, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Notability is not temporary. WP:NTEMP. If it was notable in the past, the fact that it is no longer under active development means nothing. Windows 3.1 is notable and is no longer developed.  But if no reliable sources can be found proving notability, that is a separate issue.   Linguist At Large  07:55, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your response. Was the product ever fully developed? I think saying it's no longer supported would be better than no longer developed. It wasn't clear to me reading the article whether the product was ever completed. ChildofMidnight (talk) 19:29, 15 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep. I think sources can be found (perhaps not on the web) to establish notability.  Linguist At Large  17:44, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Comment. I've provided several reliable sources above.  There are plenty more, too, if people want to go through print magazines of the era.  I was certainly well aware of this software at the time it was current, mainly through reading about it in the trade press. JulesH (talk) 13:47, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
