   Anyone asking a question like that would deserve to get flamed.  Not in a   
   million years would I ask that question.  It would be "for Slackware   
   15.0", or perhaps "Slackware-current".  No real Slacker would ask such a   
   stupid thing.

   I won't quibble over what "small" and "lot" mean.  However many there are,   
   there are *FAR* more using a release version.   
      
   But what would I know?  I've only been using it for 26 years.
