[edit] OpenIT

The language is bad, and I can't find anything that seems relevant on Google. — mæstro ^t/c 10:39, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

• Comment: there's a mystery here. There is at least one very well-known open source software package called OpenIT; its details are here: [1]. There is also OpenIT described here: [2] which may be the same thing. Google search "OpenIT" gives 250,000 raw hits, but many are about other things, including a commercial s/w package "OpenIt". The article appears to refer to #1 or #2, but is badly written, perhaps by someone who does not understand it. The OpenIT described in #1 would, I think, be sufficiently notable and widely used and known to deserve an article. Can anyone in the field shed some light on this? MCB 00:11, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

That's what I thought at first, so I began cleaning up the article. Then I realised this article had nothing to do with that. Also, I can't find any mention of OpenIT or OpenTracker in the context of Tiger (assuming we are talking about the MacOS), and OpenTracker is generally a reference to the opensource versions of the BeOS tools (as in the Wikipedia article). Anyone who could write a better version is encouraged to, but until then it's not a great idea to have this page around. — mæstro ^t/c4 09:26, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

Good call. Count my vote as delete. MCB 22:22, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
