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".

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. |
