The result was '''soft delete'''. Based on [[WP:NOQUORUM|minimal participation]], this uncontroversial nomination is treated as an expired [[WP:PROD|PROD]] (a.k.a. [[WP:SOFTDELETE|"soft deletion"]]).

* '''Delete''' all but one entry appear to have no claimed reason for notability, so there's no way to establish a useful [[WP:LSC]]. Lists (and by extension to an extent, comparisons) of mostly non-notable things are generally non-notable unless there's a clear argument that the broader topic is notable, and I can't think of one here. See also my vote at [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Comparison of XMPP server software|the XMPP comparisons AfD]] for a general argument against including these styles of comparison at all: [[WP:NOTDIRECTORY]] and the very construction of the page constitutes [[WP:SYNTH]], but these articles have enough prevalence on the wiki that I feel like a broader discussion is merited, so I'm voting here on the more stringent criteria of notability that this seems to fail.
