It doesn't seem that helpful. It has a clear obvious bias towards web
applications, rather than native as one problem. Many of the tools
listed seem to solve problems already well solved by other tools that
are missing - eg the TeX platform, with bibTex for handling
citations. Matlab is mentioned, but not Octave, an almost complete
freeware replacement for Matlab.

Whilst there is a button marked "free", what sort of free Libre, or as
in beer (which covers a lot of freemium stuff). Also cannot restrict
platforms - I'm only interested in stuff that I can run on my Linux
platform, which might include under Wine of necessary.

I looked under the category "Project management", but the tools listed
appeared to have nothing to do with PM.

At this point in time, traditional methods of discovery - searching
through one's repo's packages, and googling are more useful than this
directory. Maybe it can be improved.
