GFP Personal Finance Manager


Appears to be non-notable according to WP:SOFTWARE. Kavadi carrier 11:06, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, I did not see any reliable sources in the 100 or so unique Google hits for this product, nor are any cited in the article. Since it's still on release zero that is not a big surprise.  Redux: just another SourceForge project with no evidence of significance. Guy 11:54, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JGnash http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddi (They will be deleted too? Why?)About the zero release:Many softwares that run on Linux are release 0 is just a matter of version control discipline; when the developer advice the user that the system will be more complex when reach the 1.0 release that will be considered full featured. There are others similar OpenSource software that are 1.0 relase but haven't all features that GFP has, and GFP web site was ranked as one of the 7 best sites for "Personal Finance Manager" according to search engines result, as you can see here: http://www.best7sites.com/finance/finance7/Personal%20Finance%20Manager/index.htm?k=personal%20finance
 * Do not delete:  I disagree, if you type gfp and “personal finance” on google you will see that the first 10 result pages are about the software, some of then not in English (Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, Chinese, French), indeed the software is more used for people that does not speak English natively. Even if you type only GFP on google you will see that that 7th result is about GFP, but it isn’t in Enlgish. It was published in an article on Italian Magazine named “PC Professional” (It’s obviously written in Italian) as you can see clicking on the link in this article: http://gfd.sourceforge.net/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=12. There are articles about GFP on http://opensourceinstall.org/ (In Chinese), and http://www.clubedohardware.com.br/ (In Brazilian Portuguese).  In any of these articles it is indicated as a good Open source and multi platform alternative to MS Money. Just because its popularity in other languages is grater them in English, isn’t a reason to remove it from English idiom articles (the idea is that with the English article on wikipedia users that speak others languages in witch GFP is more used can write their idiom translation).
 * Delete, spam Nacon kantari  19:59, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Do not Delete I don't see it as a spam there are other similar software topics on wikipedia see, (some of then not so expressive):
