List of multi-threading libraries[edit]

Wikipedia is not a repository of links. This article is a summarized list of external links, so we should delete it. bmills 18:25, 24 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Most of these libraries are non-notable. If they don't deserve an article, they don't deserve an entry in a list. —Ruud 21:09, 24 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Actually useful list it would reguire much more work than the current link repository. Threading is very, very complicated and this page doesn't help one in anything. Btw, the libraries usinng lock-free techniques are missing. Category would be OK. Pavel Vozenilek 23:29, 24 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes, a category for multi-threading topics would probably be a good thing -- and much easier to maintain properly. --bmills 02:30, 25 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nomination, unencyclopedic. —Quarl ^(talk) 2006-02-25 05:43Z
Weak delete. The list doesn't contain much of an explanation in regard to why someone would choose one library over another, or what different tasks can be solved by each threading library. In fact, some of the libraries do much more than threading, such as the Windows API or the Adaptive Communication Environment. There may be some use for a listing like this, but probably in a much different format from this table.--Elkman 05:49, 25 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. and Ruud's comments --Allan McInnes (talk) 04:42, 26 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
