Totally agree with Travis. Also - who is the intended audience for this? People who want to know how the different layers of the OSI stack work in practice?

    Think it might be useful to, like, pin this to an OSI layer?

    You're going to be including all sorts of ludicrous stuff, like
    gcc & svn/git.

    Critical internet software, that's the stuff that makes happy
    machines speak transport layer to each other.


Upon further reflection, what I'm really interested in is a way to filter a flat list of everything-but-the-kitchen sink so that the following criteria can float the weaker titles up to the top:

* number of internet-facing machines running the software
* complexity of the underlying code
* average time for relevant dev community to fix critical bugs
* average time for bug-fixes to propagate (if at all-- I'm looking at you, home routers!)
* budget of the relevant dev community
