I do have 2 comments though. While I dig what CC does, it doesn’t really seem to fit in with the rest of your list. CC’s a license, not software. I’d also have to submit that Eclipse belongs on the list. Nice list. I do have 2 comments though. While I dig what CC does, it doesn’t really seem to fit in with the rest of your list.

I know many people’s Top 10 list will look totally different than this, however, I’ve talked to many people and this is as accurate I can get it to be. And even with this list many people stilll will not agree, but please no more negativity, just say the way you would have listed it.
