Try looking at http://www.distrowatch.com/  It tabulates information about
the distributions very nicely (e.g. which kernel version is associated
with  a given distribution and release, same info available for glibc,
KDE, GNOME, XFree86  and other important packages.  It gets updated fairly
frequently as well.

I think this URL may be a candidate for a link on the trilug site, as I 
think it would be that useful for the TRILUG membership.
