I am not aware of such a list, but I would be very interested in such a
list. Here is what I gather about such rates:

- Linux Journal Magazine : $600 (U.S.) with a wait times on the order of 1
year +  between submission and publication not unusual (payment is after
publication).

- Linux Journal Website : $150 (U.S.) (payment is after publication).

- Tux On-line Magazine : $300 (U.S.) for a regular article, $100 (U.S.) for
a product review (don't know about payment schedule).

- Linux Documentation Project : $0

William Park has had some articles published on the "Linux Gazette" website
and he might be able to shed some light on them. I don't know about any of
the other publications.
