I'll join in the fun. I personally like Openlava (www.openlava.org). I've
found it to be tremendously easy to install and manage. Plus I like the
fail-over features and the performance. Also, it's still being actively
developed.

Finally, the mailing list is low traffic but there are wonderful people who
help out all the time with questions.
