Oh i just cannot miss this one . Guys in gentoo there is a way to find out all software available by using a string / part of string as a search. The local reposatory is searched and the results given to you. e.g. you want to know what are the various terminal available so all you say is
emerge -s term

thats all the list of available terminals along witha brief description is available to you.

tuxfan is right here keeping a watch on the thread and getting informed

Frankly speaking, firewall has made such a comprehensive list that no one ever needs to go anywhere else for alternatives.

http://home.online.no/~osmoma/linux link jungle
This has got a lot of information on linux in general. It has a very cluttered interface. It has got a very wide range of important linux links. Though, navigating thru it is like navigating thru a jungle( the name says it all).

OSalt.com
It contains quite a long list of open source alternatives for commercial softwares. It's also organised in a nice way and is more descriptive than others I have seen so far.
