Blatant advertisment, no notability or references. Message from XENU u, t  16:10, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment: Spamish as written. Might be notable - one hit at GoogleScholar, none at GoogleCode. ~ Ningauble (talk) 17:00, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. I've added the Google Scholar reference (Gacek and Arief 2004, from IEEE Computer) that Ningauble mentions, as well as another (Sharma 2008) from the print-and-online periodical PC Quest - see the article and its talk page for more detail. Gacek and Arief (2004, p.38) selected TopologiLinux as one of nine open-source projects to use as principal examples in an in-depth scholarly study of some subtle problems in the definition of "open source"; Sharma's entire article focuses on TopologiLinux as its principal subject. ~ Neuromath (talk) 20:15, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep: does not seems "Blatant advertisment" to me. It's one of the few projects of this kind, and I think for that reason alone it's inclusion on wikipedia should be considered. (and also keep in mind it is very hard to prova notability of recent technology, especially open-source), and also, according to wikipedia, Wubi (Ubuntu) was inspired by TopologiLinux.

 * Weak Keep The article needs referencing, to be certain. But I am sure a good hunt about the Net (especially the Linux media that passes WP:RS) can locate something.  I'm not eager to rush this one out the door. Ecoleetage (talk) 23:12, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
