The cited sources are almost exclusively about some other topic, with this person mentioned in passing. Seems to me he's just another programmer, and does not meet WP:N. Orange Mike | Talk 18:08, 30 April 2016 (UTC)

- Delete as the article is quite detailed bug, examining it, it's still questionable for independent notability. Delete fornnow at best, SwisterTwister talk 12:51, 3 May 2016 (UTC)
- Comment + Keep I'd like to note that there was a deletion discussion for this article closed three days before this discussion was opened (closed as no consensus): Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jay Freeman. I'd like to include my vote from that discussion along with the list at Talk:Jay Freeman#Additional references that could be useful. Dreamyshade ( talk) 12:31, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
- Comment I'm not going to !vote this either way, since I don't have a strong opinion and don't really care. What I will say, is as a procedural matter, I don't think it was a good idea to renominate this article so soon after it was closed as no consensus. I think it would have been better to leave it for a while, to allow people to mull on the topic a bit more, etc, rather than rushing in to another nomination.

- reply to Comment""" - I did not notice when I made the nomination that it had recently been up for an AfD. It tripped some trigger or other and seemed to me to be an obvious candidacy for AfD. -- Orange Mike | Talk 22:05, 7 May 2016 (UTC)

- Keep - Subject is notable for the creation of Cydia and is covered extensively in reliable sources. Meatsgains ( talk) 02:02, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
- Keep. Easy call. The first two sources I tried, The Daily Nexus and the WSJ, were all I needed. He's notable. The WP:RS discussing the subject exist. Msnicki ( talk) 03:13, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
