331:- Software article of unclear notability. The best ref is a brief lifehacker piece, with only a paragraph of coverage, on its own not sufficient for establishing notability. The other lifehacker ref only covers App Runner; this is a different piece of software, notability is not inherited, and this article does not mention Super OS. Both softpedia refs are just quoting a developers' press release, and as such are not significant independent coverage. A search turned up download sites and forum posts, but no significant, independent coverage.
350:- While I can't support any of the arguments here for non-notability, circumstances have changed. The website distributing the software is dead and so is the distribution. It was previously blatantly notable (most distributions Knowledge (XXG) features don't get the coverage this one got), but is no longer notable due to lack of existence.--

405:: I don't think the notability has changed in any way due to lack of development, but considering that the references lack any depth of coverage or independence from press releases to establish notability, it should just be deleted.

operate differently. I don't learn about notable software in books or peer-reviewed literature (and neither does anyone else). How that implicates upon a useful guideline to editors, I'm not yet sure.--

Weak Keep - It may not be as notable as other distros, but it did gain some media coverage. Looks like it barely passes notability guidelines to me.
