I'd prefer having each tool in one section that fit them best... for example, Acunetix is in the commercial tools (which is their main tool), but they also have a free variant (for XSS only IIRC). Would it make more sense to put Websecurify in the free/open-source tools?

can you add Websecurify in the "Commercial Tools" and "Free / Open Source Tools" sections?
