 * Keep. The article needs cleanup f'sure...but I don't like the precedent of deleting articles regarding software applications. There are lots of people who consult Wikipedia for feature comparison charts like this one, and this one, and it's not doing them any good at all to present them with a bunch of "oranged-out" dead links. In a day and age when mainstream media news agencies are being run by the corporate entertainment divisions, and a good 95% of technical information exchanges are occuring exclusively on internet fora, the hoary "notability" guidelines Wikipedia is presently employing are doing more harm than good -- you simply cannot expect newspapers and "big four" TV channels to write stories about such obscure technical subjects. This does not mean that nobody is interested in the material. I'd guess that about three-fourths of the "still alive because they're blue" linked applications on either of those comparison charts could be hosed under the same rationale as this one. But by deleting them, all you're doing is driving away readership segments and eliminating any positive reputation for comprehensiveness.--Mike18xx 00:58, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as not notable and unverifiable. There's nothing making this app stand out.  Ichibani  utc 03:27, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
