Non-notable free software project. This article doesn't claim notability of this project, and doesn't establish notability with third-party references. Might be copyvio from. Listing for AfD after prod was removed. (Sorry; I replaced prod once. I sometimes forget that this maintenance tag can't be replaced, like all the others that I so frequently have to replace after they're removed without comment or improvement.)

 * Keep. Here are 680 reliable sources and here are another 191. How many do there need to be for the nominator to accept a subject as notable? Phil Bridger (talk) 21:32, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. An important piece of KDE software, with significant coverage in reliable sources. Mostlyharmless (talk) 03:48, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
