347:"Knowledge is not a crystal ball, and editors should avoid using one when commenting in a deletion discussion. It is difficult to determine precisely what people believe in the present, even more difficult to predict how perceptions will change in the future, and completely unnecessary to even try. Notability is based on objective evidence of whether sufficient reliable sources have taken notice already, not on subjective judgments of whether people should take notice in the future. Focusing on the objective evidence helps the deletion discussion reach a logical conclusion; injecting your personal predictions does not."

409:(I used Digital 8 tape backup from Coolatoola to hold 17 GB per tape.) Still, my personal expriences have nothing to do with the article, and I suggest that, other than ZIP, RAR, SIT, and a few other mainstream compression formats, or maybe all compression formats, should be rewritten in a very long, but accurate, article. Just a thought.
408:
It is, however, one Hell of a compression archiver! I'm thinking of buying a Mac Pro, Boot
Camping it to Windows 7 Ultimate, and maxxing out the RAM, just to run KGB non-stop for my petabytes of data that I need to backup. One experiment took a 1.1 MB file and compressed it to 101 KB. That's great!

is a graphical frontend for Matt
Mahoney's PAQ8F and Bill Pettis's PAQ8JD; you can create, browse and extract archives in those two PAQ8 formats. The original PAQ executables used doesn't support additional features, like encryption (that is instead integrated in KGB Archiver), solid archiving or

First, Neither you using KGB Archiver or KJB claiming to be under GPL says anything about whether KGB Archiver violates the GPL. Second, the article on PAQ has no citation establishing that KGB Archiver violates the GPL. Third, you don't delete an article to punish someone for alleged GPL

I don't know is KGB Archiver PAQ spinoff or not, but I find it very useful tool and I think
Knowledge should have article about it. Imagine if many years ago Knowledge have deleted article about Winamp or DC++ because of lack of notability. Lets wait and see how KGB Archiver develops.
392:
Not being notable is reason for deletion, and KGB Archiver is not notable. It is not included in most "test all archivers against each other" websites, and if it really is based upon PAQ version 6, the world has moved on to using PAQ version 8. Delete it.

KGB is basically a PAQ6 clone. In fact KGB is PAQ6v2 with a GUI created on top of it. Unfortunately the author of KGB doesn't respect the GPL license of PAQ6 (see

Abandoned, buggy, and not useful are not reasons for deletion. MS-DOS is abandoned. WinME is buggy. May programs are not useful to many people.
