Contested proposed deletion, removed by an IP number. Another minor "project management" software that makes no specific claim to historical or technical importance of the sort needed to sustain an encyclopedia article. "Reference" supplied is apparently to a programming blog, not a reliable source. Article is full of puffery and other indicia of unambiguous advertising:

These sorts of things need real historical and technical importance, not simply trade press coverage and reviews, unless we are acquiescing in allowing Wikipedia to be come a free web host for every project management software package. Some Google News coverage, but it all appears to be minor mentions in lists of similar products, or press releases. Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 16:56, 28 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - the cited source "The AppGap" is a blog[1], and so is "A Girl's Guide to Project Management"[2]; they would appear not to pass full muster as reliable sources. Both would also appear to be focused on the office software trade, and as such can't really confer notability. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 14:15, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.
