I disagree. To me, the only value that page has over raw Google results is that it lists "tools" known to be open source. However, it adds nothing in the way of recommendations or "best practices" or practical advice; heck, it doesn't even provide the author's experiences with any of the tools. The categories range from 3 to 18 entries each; even an experienced sysadmin (but one unfamiliar with any given topic) would have to spend days or weeks (months?) reading and hacking and testing before being able to make any sort of decision. An inexperienced sysadmin would just be doomed. Of course, if there were an organization dedicated to helping sysadmins, taking that list as a starting point and turning it into a list of "best of class tools" or "<tool>: pros and cons" or something like that, well, that would be an awesome project for such an organization!
