fails WP:SOFT Hornet35 04:12, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Huh? What part of WP:SOFT talks about notability, or what part of it does this article fail? --Oscarthecat 06:02, 28 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete unless sources giving coverage are found Corpx 05:06, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak keep It is a component in several notable products (see Talk:Matchbox (window manager) as well). --Alksub 05:38, 27 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep - Whatlinkshere shows it's an important link in One Laptop per Child, definitely an important topic, and links from several others using soley or parts of that interface. Also, there is no WP:SOFT (products fall under Notability (organizations and companies)). ALTON   .ıl  07:52, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak keep. One can just about find enough sources to justify this one (eg  ). There aren't many sources though, perhaps because it isn't all that notable, and I'd prefer to merge if there's a suitable target. Jakew 09:58, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep. It's used by at least a couple large projects, so it's notable enough. GhePeU 12:06, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
