Nothing beyond a bare assertion of notability - the references given don't mention "MDB" at all, the external links are primary sources -- the Google Code page and a press release. Non-notable and unreferenced. ArglebargleIV (talk) 21:44, 27 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

keep - the same argument can be used for KGDB since this article has NOT ONE SINGLE secondary or third party reference, unlike MDB which has news articles (dozens) from third party sources referenced. Given this rationale, none of the kernel debugger articles meet Wikipedia's requirements except MDB, which is not reasonable or lucid as an argument. There are sufficient sources to keep the article. The general idea of free software and kernel development makes most references to kernel debuggers contained within the development lists of linux itself. in such a case, its unlikely a kernel debugger for Linux would be mentioned outside of these sources and its the one case I think use of even primary sources and secondary sources may be valid and defensible since Kernel debugging tools are contained within dicussions of Linux development itself. I have reviewed the vandalism by a single purpose "attack" account which vandalized the article in question, don't understand this persons rationale at all after reviewing the comments.
