[edit] Glitz (software)

Glitz (software) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Text is almost speediable for lack of an assertion of notability (and very little context), but since this was already subject of a deletion review I'm seeking community input. Unless someone can add sources which establish notability this article should be deleted or merged. ~ trialsanderrors (talk) 22:40, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

  • Do not delete -- [ip] for balance and technology reasons. Glitz, like Cairo, is an intergral part of the freedesktop.org project. It needs more work. The mailing lists contain ample information. This project provides opengl stability to X.org. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.116.91.230 (talk) 02:13, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Wikipedia cannot compete with Freshmeat and cover such volatile topics. Pavel Vozenilek (talk) 00:01, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. What the above IP user was saying is basically that Glitz is notable because of it's important role in freedesktop.org, a pretty big linux movement that connects several Unix operating systems. DavidJ710| talk 10:06, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
    • I'm happy to withdraw if someone can add to the article, but as it is, it doesn't even assert notability. ~ trialsanderrors (talk) 15:54, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
