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.  <SHRUG>
