Strong keep: not a single valid argument for deletion has been asserted, per WP:NOTTEMPORARY and Wikipedia:Deletion is not cleanup. (There are plenty of links at the bottom of the article for satisfying WP:GNG; the fact that they are currently languishing there is irrelevant.) I should also note that this software is of not-insignificant importance to the history of the web in general due to its relationship to Invision Power Board, among the most-used Internet forum software (and later content management systems) on the Internet.
