Wow, I had no idea this site existed, but I love the idea. I don't regularly use a Windows machine, but I'd love to see something for Linux users in the future.<p>Even for us Debian/Ubuntu users, I'd like something like:<p><pre><code> [ ] Build LAMP server [ ] Build LEMP server [ ] Build RoR server </code></pre> And it give you the script/apt-get commands to install all of the required packages, similar to how Linode install scripts work.<p>Regardless, this is awesome. Those download software sites are a relic of the early web that need to die.

Long shot, but I thought I'd ask:<p>Is there any way you guys could offer a browser-testing suite for web developers, or even just old versions of the browsers? Getting multiple versions of IE on one machine is a nightmare.<p>The guys at Xenocode used to offer "virtualized" copies of IE6-8 and the other browsers, that ran out of a single EXE with no install, and it was wonderful. They discontinued the product, and I've been looking for a replacement ever since.<p>Thanks!

This also makes a very nice list of recommended apps. Please don't lose sight of that aspect once you start getting swamped with requests to add additional tools!
