Video Authoring Application of the Year

Surprised DVDAuthor wasn't mentioned. DVDStyler is useful too.

I like flchat. You'll find it in Nanolinux, but it's easy to build and compile on other systems.

Raster Graphics Editor of the Year

My current favorites are grafx2, rendera and I.mage.

I think it would be cool to have a stable--semi rolling--rolling--unstable--(whatever else)

This would gauge what type of release people are using. I'm sure this would be very useful to distributions for future choices.

"Oracle Enterprise Linux" should be renamed to "Oracle Linux". "Enterprise" was dropped when OL 5.5 was released in 2010. The naming difference is not just marketing, the Red Hat Enterprise Linux compatible kernel ceased to be the default one with this release.

Ah, Emilia Pinball. Kind of a Linux "classic." It's been around for quite a long time, starting in January, 2000, according to the author.
