Weak Keep: All that I can find on Google is the official site, download sites, forums, and info on a software vulnerability. All that I can find in Google News is three software vulnerabilities and forums. But I will !vote weak keep because I found [1] and [2] in Google Books plus there is an interview already in the article. Joe Chill (talk) 22:35, 31 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Historically notable for being the Perl/Flat File based ancestor of Simple Machines Forum, which is fairly popular today. ANDROS¹³³⁷ 17:10, 2 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete unnotable software that FAILS WP:N; minor mentions and a single interview are just not enough coverage to meet notability requirements, and its being the ancestor of some other software does not make it notable enough for its own artice. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 06:08, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

KEEP , I think that this software and it's spread of use make it notable enough. There certainly seem to be enough people who have heard of it. (Milestokilo (talk) 12:09, 15 February 2010 (UTC))[reply]
Delete since I use it, I was inclined to say 'keep', but I just couldn't find sources to back it up. Dlabtot (talk) 18:57, 15 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
