If anyone interested and think it's appropriate drop me a line or reply here thanks in advance. It's not to compete with this website or anyone else it would be much better to have a dedicated site IMO

My first question is what experience level do you have with Slackware? As CTM clearly points out that the community here at
official LQ Slackware forum there are multitude of supporters. Both in repository support, contributing Slackware team members and a multitude of community support members.
As to my contribution: I originally started '
SlackwareŽ LQ Suggestions Links! which is the original list of links that evolved to
SlackwareŽ-Links.
Personally my support here at LQ started back 2005 because of the stability, morality and trash on Usenet support lists. My point is that with my experience with Slack beginning from the start. I really cannot see how your TechDesk support web site would provide any real Slackware support that is not already available.
From my opinion and view point your site would require injection from other experienced Slackware users. Myself, I already feel my contributions now are more than sufficient and sometimes exceed beyond original intent. I cannot speak for other
LQ Slackware forum members.
Look at '
So you want to be a Slacker! What do I do next?' sticky. This originally was a thread to bring a point for update material, user notes and other Slackware support needs or notices for a broad audience. Our
LQ Slackware forum is viable and useful to old and new Slackware users.
I really think you should look through the support here at LQ for Slackware by all participants.
Not to discourage you but think it through a bit more.
