[edit] Chirp_software

Advertising, just barely, what do you think? inks 03:49, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

Keep - I intend to make it less an advertising page, and point out more *pedia concepts. lnks just reviewed the page after I'd made my first editing/creation pass but hadn't finished the process.

I intend to:

• Use Chirp to point out that most Project Management Software applications address the wrong problems for most people who try to use them. (e.g. most people why try a project management package really just want to manage a flow of tasks, not "manage a discreet project" where timelines, resource allocations, etc. are studied.) Project Management is a particularly well-developed skill and art, but beyond the needs -- and skills -- of most people. Yet most Project Management Software packages studiously focus on implementing this art, and leave users in the dark about alternate ways of managing an ongoing flow of work. I can and will make this point on the Project Management Software page, but I can't do it all there. It is more appropriate to draw the full contrast on a page for Chirp to point to for more complete discussion of the issue raised on the former page;
• Point at this page from SyncML. Chirp incorporates a novel application of SyncML. (SyncML is normally thought of as useful only to syncrhonize contact information between a phone/PDA and a computer. Chirp uses SyncML for application-level data synchronization.)

Finally, I know Microsoft Project is a well-known application, but if Chirp software gets deleted for "Advertising" reasons, then so should the Microsoft Project page out of fairness. Batsonjay 04:22, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

• Delete - Jay, no offense intended, but there's no way that Chirp software (or Plum Canary for that matter) merits a Wiki article. Neither are notable yet. Even if you were to re-write as you describe, it would fall under the category of "original research" or "point of view". I wish you luck in your business and hope you'll become a Wiki contributor. -PlainSight 05:10, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

• Delete per above. Perhaps the Plum Canary page should survive as a corporate stub, but until this software has a following, it should not be a separate page. Jehochman 03:38, 27 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. As per above. *drew 22:57, 27 August 2005 (UTC)
