FWIW, I completely disagree with doing this.  A) It will give the
impression that we support these programs (I assume there will
eventually be more), B) How are we verifying that the version listed
actually works? C) Is someone going to test every single release
against each program we have listed to make sure the information is
still valid? D) What criteria are we using to decide which programs
get listed?

Just my $.02.

+0.5 what Michael said.

It seems like this belongs on the Wiki, especially since third-party
users of SA are going to trail our releases and because it's not our
responsibility.
