This article was created via a paid editing bid on elance.com in violation of our policy that Wikipedia is NOT a vehicle for promotion (the poster of the bid identifies as Founder and CTO of Cloudcor Inc.). The subject itself appears be nonnotable as it hasn't received significant coverage in reliable sources (all of the references are from press releases or other sources direct from the subject) so there is no reason to keep the article from developing.

- Delete because it is non-notable and it is not significantly covered. However, this should not be deleted solely because someone (likely uninvolved with the company) was paid to write it since that is not grounds for automatic deletion per WP:COI Financial.

- Wait, there are reliable sources, I just did not have the time to complete the draft. Some of them at a quick search: Harvard University [1], Platform Computing [2], PC World [3], Директор информационной службы [4], Backbone Magazine [5], Sun Microsystems [6]. I request the canceling of this deletion discussion in order to let me complete this draft and release it as a proper article (and then, if one considers necessary, may start another one). The conferences organized by Cloudcor are the most important events in cloud computing and they are obviously notable. The paid editing bid presented by ThemFromSpace appears canceled.

- All those sources you provided above are about Cloud Slam 2009 that do not even mention Cloudcor. The reliable sources need to be about Cloudcor which is the business you are writing the article about. The deletion discussion lasts 7 days and you should try to find reliable sources, see WP:N and WP:COMPANY. EdEColbertLet me know 23:02, 3 September 2010 (UTC)
- Delete Unless Adlandet can find some good sources. ~~ Hi878 (Come shout at me!) 01:24, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
