No evidence of notability through extensive coverage in multiple, independent reliable sources. A Google Scholar search for 'sdl "simple declarative language"' returns about a dozen hits, but most of these seem to be for other languages of the same name, and those that are for this particular SDL merely cite it rather than discuss it in detail.

As I mentioned on the other Talk page (I really don't understand how these weird "discussion" pages on Wikipedia are supposed to work), SDL can hardly be considered non-notable considering that it's used by such high-profile companies/projects as Oracle, Bank of America, JTest Framework, and Swing. Remember that buzz (and especially searching exclusively in "Scholar" circles for buzz) is not the same thing as notability. Nitrode (talk)
