Nice list. I do have to say GIMP goes right up there among the best of the best. It turned me on to the potential of Open Source, and that’s a good thing. Cheers.

Filezilla 2.x.x was a great client, but Filezilla 3 plain sucks. I’ll stick with gFTP.

I’m shocked you guys mentioned CMS packages like Xoops and PHP-Nuke, but not better-supported ones like WordPress, Drupal, and Joomla!. All are licensed under the GPL and can be used for free on a wide variety of projects, from Your Mom’s Blog to large business sites.
