This is a collection of interesting and/or useful software I have collected and for some reason kept around for a while. Perhaps some of it can be of interest to others as well.
There is no order, no categories and some of this material may even be of a somewhat dubious copyright nature. I have tried to follow the copyright licenses that I was aware of, but please tell me if you object to having any of these packages listed.
